How to Find Your Seatext AI API Key
Log in to your SEATEXT AI account, open the General Integration page, and copy the JavaScript code that contains your unique API key. Then install the script on your site and activate it.
Log in to your SEATEXT AI account, open the General Integration page, and copy the JavaScript code provided by SEATEXT AI. Your unique API key is embedded in that code. You need this code to install Seatext on your website.
- Visit seatext.com and click Login.
- Enter your email and password to access your dashboard.
- Go to the General Integration page.
- Find the JavaScript code block under the 'General Integration' heading.
- Copy the entire script. Your API key is part of this script.
- Paste the script into your website or your platform's custom code field.
What the API Key Is and Why It Matters
An API key is a unique identifier for your SEATEXT AI account. It is embedded in the JavaScript code that Seatext gives you. The key tells Seatext which website is using the service. Each key is tied to one primary URL. This binding prevents someone else from using your key on another site. It also helps Seatext associate traffic with your account.
Without the correct key, the script cannot connect to your account. That means your website cannot receive the AI-powered updates. The key also protects you. If someone steals your key, they cannot use it on a different domain because the account is already linked to your URL.
The installation process is secure, and the AI stays inactive until you activate it. So copying the code does not change your site right away. You control when the AI starts. This gives you time to verify the script is in place before going live.
Before You Start: Prerequisites
You need a SEATEXT AI account before you can install the script. If you do not have an account, create one on the Seatext website. You also need access to your website's backend or a plugin that injects custom JavaScript.
If you use WPEngine, download the WP Engine plugin that enables you to add custom JavaScript code to your pages. Install it and apply it across all your pages. For other platforms, use your theme's custom code option or a tag manager.
You also need a real, valid domain. Localhost is restricted for security reasons. Dynamic development domains may not function properly. Seatext might be unable to reliably associate traffic with your account on those domains.
How to Copy the API Key
The key is not shown as a separate string in the integration guide. Seatext provides a complete JavaScript snippet that includes your key. To find it, log in and open the General Integration page. The code block appears under the 'General Integration' heading.
Click inside the code block and copy everything. Do not copy only part of the script. The key is part of the whole snippet. Save the code in a secure place while you install it. If you lose it, go back to the same page and copy it again.
Make sure you are logged into the correct account. Each account has a different script because each account is linked to a different primary URL. Copying the script from the wrong account will not work on your site.
Installing the Script After Copying the Key
Open your website's HTML in the section where you want the AI to run. Paste the script before the closing body tag or in the head, depending on your platform. If you use WPEngine, open the custom JS plugin and paste the code there. Apply the plugin across all pages.
For other platforms, search for a custom code or footer script option. Do not modify the JavaScript code. Change only the placement. After pasting, save your changes and clear any caches. The AI is still inactive until you activate it.
Double-check that the script appears on every page where you want Seatext to work. If you only add it to the homepage, the AI will not run on other pages.
How to Confirm the Key Works
After installing, visit your website. Refresh the page several times. Stay on the page for at least 40 seconds. This action activates the AI and links it to your account. It is an important step. Do not skip it.
Then wait at least five minutes. Log in to your SEATEXT AI dashboard. Look at the top of the dashboard page. You should see your website name displayed next to the SEATEXT logo. That confirms the key works and the site is connected.
If the website name does not appear after 10 minutes, contact our support team immediately. This could indicate an issue during installation on your platform. You may need our assistance to fix it.
Multi-Domain and Development Restrictions
Each SEATEXT AI account is linked to a single primary URL. If you need to use SEATEXT AI on multiple domains, such as a development domain and a production domain, you must create separate accounts for each domain. You cannot use one key for two different websites.
Localhost is restricted for security reasons. Use only valid, real domains. Dynamic development domains may not work. Seatext might not be able to reliably associate traffic with your account if the domain changes frequently.
To use SEATEXT AI on several websites, create one account for each website. This keeps your traffic data separate and ensures the AI works on the correct domain.
Troubleshooting and Limitations
If the website name does not appear, check that you copied the full script. Confirm the script is installed on every page you want to activate. Refresh your website several times and stay for at least 40 seconds. Wait up to 10 minutes for the dashboard to update.
If still nothing, contact Seatext support immediately. There may be an issue with your platform's setup. You cannot use one key on multiple domains. You cannot use localhost or dynamic development domains.
