# Create App

Before creating an application, you must **generate an access key**. This process is only done once if you are a new ANTARES user. You can find this option by visiting the menu **Account -> Access Key -> Get Access key**. Access Key is your account identity. Please keep your access key safe.

After that, we can create the application. Back to the **Applications** menu on the dashboard page, click **Create an Application**. You will go to the following page:

Please fill in the required information. For the **Application Name**, efforts are made to **give a name that is unique and different from the previous application name**, and for the **Application ID** it is adjusted to the needs and **is not required**. After all the required information is filled in click **+Add.**
