# Connect to Anthropic Connect your Anthropic organization to Finora to track API spend across Claude Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku. > **Before you start** > > * You need the **admin role** in your Anthropic organization to create the right kind of API key. > * This integration covers the **Anthropic API platform only**. Claude.ai consumer plans (Pro, Team) aren't tracked here — for those, use the [AI Subscriptions tracker](/core-features/ai-subscriptions.md). ## Overview You'll create an **Admin API key** in the Anthropic Console, then paste it into Finora. The Admin key is read-only for billing data — it can't be used to invoke Claude or change anything in your account. ## Step 1: Create an Anthropic Admin API key 1. Sign in to the [Anthropic Console](https://console.anthropic.com) as an organization admin. 2. Open **Settings → Admin Keys** (or go directly to [console.anthropic.com/settings/admin-keys](https://console.anthropic.com/settings/admin-keys)). 3. Click **+ Create Admin Key**. 4. Give it a clear name like `Finora Integration` and click **Add**. 5. **Copy the key immediately** — Anthropic only shows it once. > The key starts with **`sk-ant-admin01-`**. If yours starts with `sk-ant-api...`, you created a regular API key by mistake — those can't read billing data. Go back to **Admin Keys** and create the right kind. ## Step 2: Connect Anthropic to Finora 1. In Finora, click **Settings** in the sidebar, then open the **API Keys** tab. 2. From the **Provider** dropdown, choose **Anthropic**. 3. Paste the Admin API key into the **Admin API Key** field. 4. Click **Save**. Finora checks that the key works. On success, Anthropic appears in your connected providers list and your data flows in at the next refresh. ## What Finora tracks for Anthropic * Total cost in USD * Date of each charge * Which Claude model was used (Opus, Sonnet, Haiku, with version) * Workspace name if you use multiple workspaces > **About today's spend.** Anthropic only publishes finalized cost numbers after each day closes. So today's spend appears in Finora the next day, once Anthropic has closed the books on the day. If yesterday's number looks lower in Finora than in your Anthropic console, give it a few hours to reconcile. ## FAQs **How long until my data shows up?** Within one full refresh cycle — 24 hours on Trial and Growth, 1 hour on Scale, 15 minutes on Enterprise. Note that today's spend always appears the next day, because Anthropic only publishes finalized numbers after the day closes. **Why an Admin key and not a regular API key?** Anthropic's billing data is only readable with an Admin key. Regular API keys (the ones your apps use to call Claude) can't see costs. **Can the Admin key be used to call Claude or charge my account?** No. Admin keys can read organization and billing data — they can't invoke models. **What if I have multiple workspaces?** Each workspace appears as a tag value, so you can split spend by workspace in your reports and dashboards. **Saving the key failed. What's wrong?** Common reasons: * You used a project API key instead of an Admin key (check the prefix — it should be `sk-ant-admin01-`). * The key was revoked in Anthropic. * The user who created the key lost the admin role. Create a fresh Admin key and try again. **Why does yesterday's number look different from the Anthropic console?** Anthropic's finalized cost data can take a few hours to publish after a day closes. Your console may show preliminary numbers earlier. Within 24 hours of UTC midnight, Finora's number should match the console. **How do I rotate the key?** Create a new Admin key in Anthropic, come back to Finora **Settings → API Keys**, click **Update** on the Anthropic row, paste the new key. Your old key keeps working until you click Save. ## Removing the integration Open **Settings → API Keys**, find the Anthropic row, click the trash icon, and confirm. Your stored credential is deleted. Historical data stays in your charts. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
