Get access keys for Event Grid resources (topics or domains)

Access keys are used to authenticate an application publishing events to Azure Event Grid resources (topics and domains). We recommend regenerating your keys regularly and storing them securely. You are provided with two access keys so that you can maintain connections using one key while regenerating the other.

This article describes how to get access keys for an Event Grid resource (topic or domain) using Azure portal, PowerShell, or CLI.

Azure portal

In the Azure portal, switch to Access keys tab of the Event Grid Topic or Event Grid Domain page for your topic or domain.

Access keys page

Azure PowerShell

Use the Get-AzEventGridTopicKey command to get access keys for topics.

Get-AzEventGridTopicKey -ResourceGroup <RESOURCE GROUP NAME> -Name <TOPIC NAME>

Use Get-AzEventGridDomainKey command to get access keys for domains.

Get-AzEventGridDomainKey -ResourceGroup <RESOURCE GROUP NAME> -Name <DOMAIN NAME>

Azure CLI

Use the az eventgrid topic key list to get access keys for topics.

az eventgrid topic key list --resource-group <RESOURCE GROUP NAME> --name <TOPIC NAME>

Use az eventgrid domain key list to get access keys for domains.
