How To Generate API key In Odoo14 || How To Use Developer API Key in Odoo14

How to generate and use api key in odoo 14. New in version 14.0.
Odoo 14 has support for API Keys and (depending on modules or settings) may require these keys to perform Odoo webservice operations.The way to use API Keys in your scripts is to simply replace your password by the key. The login remains in-use. You should store the API Key as carefully as the password as they essentially provide the same access to your user account (although they can not be used to log-in via the interface).In order to add a key to your account, simply go to your Preferences (or My Profile).

@@OdooMates hello sir i managed to taken out the result as success but the token we generated from odoo can we use that to call the data from other application, if not how can we use this method of external api because to establish connection with third party they are asking for api key
