API key to OctoPrint - I can's seem to find it??

Isn't there a way to create an API key on OctoPrint (I did this) and add that to PrusaSlicer so that PrusaSlicer can send print files directly to OctoPrint?

I think I did this before but I can't seem to find that setting in PrusaSlicer anywhere. 

Any hints please?

https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/releases/tag/version_2.3.0-alpha2 for the release notes.

But in summary the keys settings are now part of a physical printer setup which is separate to the normal printer setup.  

Go to your printer settings tab and then click on the cog icon  nxt to the printer select dropdown.  If you hover over it you should see "add physical printer".  

That will open a dialog where you can name your physical printer and also assign the octoprint keys.

Edit - wonder never cease.  I found it on page 3 or 4 https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/prusaslicer/prusaslicer-2-3-printer-settings-physical-printers-confusion/  

Cant help you beyond that with this particular function as I don't use octoprint.  There's another thread in this sub forum somewhere where its explained better.  Finding that thread though is a different matter as search sucks here.

Note that current versions of OctoPrint have 2 API keys, one global and the other per app (I think, I use global for PrusaSlicer).
