# Where do I find the stream key?

> The stream key links your signal to the right slot in streaming. In Review it belongs to a livestreaming source.

How you connect your work depends on the product. Pick yours below.

  <Tab title="Streaming Classic">
    The stream key links your live signal to the right stream slot. Together with the RTMPS server address it is all your encoder needs to go live.

    <Steps>
      <Step title="Open your project">
        Go to **My Projects** and open the project you want to stream to.
      </Step>

      <Step title="Open the stream slot">
        A project holds one or more stream slots, and each slot has its own key. Open a slot, or create one with **New stream slot**.
      </Step>

      <Step title="Copy the key from the Ingest tab">
        In the slot, open the **Ingest** tab. You see the RTMPS server and the stream key, each with its own copy button. Paste both into your encoder.

    <Warning>
      Treat the stream key like a password. Anyone who has it can publish to your slot. Your credentials stay the same until you renew them in the ingest settings.
    </Warning>
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Review">
    In Review the stream key belongs to a conferencing **Source**. Open **Live Sessions**, open your room, then **Edit** the room and go to the **Sources** tab. Click **Add Source**, then copy its **Stream Key** along with the **Server URL** into your encoder. See [Where do I find the ingest server URL?](/en/where-do-i-find-the-ingest-server-url).
