### Creating Restricted API Key

Stripe for Jira Service Management is a read only add on. It doesn't write any data to your Stripe instance.

To make sure this is the case, you can create a restricted API Key.

Navigate to Stripe [dashboard](https://dashboard.stripe.com/apikeys). Click on **Create restricted key**.
