# Create a Deka LLM

The API Key creation from the Dashboard includes balance top-up as part of the process, allowing you to use the LLM immediately after creation. This differs from the LLM module, where API Key creation and balance management can be performed separately.

On the Dashboard page, there is a highlighted section that can be used to create an LLM API Key directly.
