Applications are the foundation of your SpatialReal integration. Each application provides the credentials needed to authenticate with SpatialReal services.

​
Creating an Application

1

Navigate to Applications

Go to the Applications page in SpatialReal Studio.
2

Create New Application

Click the Create Application button and enter a name for your application.
3

Enter Your Application

Click the Details button on your newly created application to open its settings page.
4

Create API Key

Click Create API Key to generate your credentials. Copy and store the API Key securely — it will only be shown once.

​
API Key

Your API Key is used to authenticate server-side requests to SpatialReal services.
Important: Your API Key is only displayed once when the application is created. Make sure to copy and store it securely. If you lose your API Key, you will need to regenerate it.
Best Practices:
  • Store your API Key in environment variables or a secrets manager
  • Never expose your API Key in client-side code
  • Never commit your API Key to version control

​
Temporary Session Token

For quick testing and development, you can generate a Temporary Session Token directly from the Studio dashboard.
Temporary Session Tokens are valid for 24 hours only. They are intended for testing purposes and should not be used in production.
1

Open Your Application

Navigate to your application in the Studio dashboard.
2

Generate Token

Click Generate Temporary Token to create a new session token.
3

Use for Testing

Use this token in your client SDK to test avatar rendering without setting up server-side authentication.

​
Production Authentication

In production, you should generate session tokens from your backend server using the API Key. See the Authentication Guide for implementation details.
