API Key keeps changing(iOS)

The API key we are supposed to add to the .plist file keeps changing every time I try to find it in the alexa developer console. Is this supposed to happen?

Yes this is expected behavior. The API key is generated on the fly when you log into in the alexa developer console. The API key generation includes a current data as part of a confuser to keep the key secure. You do not need not keep updating the API key .plist file. The LWA SDK handles verifying the API key regardless of its time of generation. Message was edited by: elstryan@Amazon
