# GoldRush Add-On from Quicknode

> Step-by-step instructions for accessing GoldRush and your API key from the Quicknode Dashboard.

Quicknode exposes the GoldRush Add-On within their Endpoints. Follow the steps below to access the GoldRush platform from Quicknode to access your API key and usage stats.

<Note>
  Ensure you are logged out of the [GoldRush platform ](https://goldrush.dev/platform) so that there is no login conflict with any existing GoldRush account you may have.
</Note>

### 1. Create a Quicknode Endpoint

* Sign in to the [Quicknode Dashboard](https://dashboard.quicknode.com/) and create a new endpoint (or open an existing one) on the chain where you want to use GoldRush.

### 2. Switch to the **Add-ons** tab

* Inside the endpoint view, select the **Add-ons** tab that sits alongside "Overview", "Metrics", "Security", and "Logs".
* Quicknode lists every third-party add-on that is available for your endpoint. You should see the specific GoldRush API add-on listed under **Installed Third-Party Add-Ons**.

### 3. Sign in to the GoldRush dashboard and access your API key

* Click **Sign in to Dashboard** on the GoldRush card. Quicknode opens the dedicated GoldRush dashboard in a new tab and automatically authenticates you with your Quicknode credentials.
* Access and manage your API key. Note that you only get 1 active API key at any time through the Quicknode marketplace.

If you run into any issues with the add-on not showing up, double-check that the endpoint was created after purchasing the add-on and that the Quicknode organization you are viewing matches the one used at checkout.
