Introduction
To connect Spherium.ai with xAI models (such as Grok), you’ll need an active API key from the xAI Developer Console. This key acts as your secure credential for authenticating requests between Spherium.ai and xAI’s API. This guide covers how to register for an API key, secure it, and prepare it for integration.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure you have:
-
An active xAI account
-
Valid payment method configured (required for most API usage)
-
Organization Admin or Workspace Admin permissions in Spherium.ai to configure model integrations
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Visit the xAI Console
- Go to the official xAI API console at console.x.ai
- You'll need to create an account or sign in if you already have one
Step 2: Account Setup
- Sign up using your email address or preferred authentication method
- Complete any required verification steps
- Accept the terms of service and usage policies
Step 3: Generate API Key
- Navigate to the API Keys section in your dashboard

- Give your API key a descriptive name for easy identification
- Set any necessary permissions or usage limits
Step 4: Billing Setup (if required)

- Select an appropriate plan for your needs
Important Notes
- Keep your API key secure and never share it publicly
- Store it in environment variables or secure configuration files
- Monitor your usage to avoid unexpected charges
