# API Request Signing

> **Info:**
> API request signing is an optional opt-in feature for GoCardless Embed. To enable it, contact your
>   account manager.

When enabled, API request signing works identically to the [outbound payments implementation](/docs/send-money/api-request-signing) — the same RFC-9421 mechanism, the same key generation steps, and the same code examples apply.

The only difference is where you upload your public key in the dashboard:

- Go to [Settings → Configurations](https://manage-sandbox.gocardless.com/company/configurations).
- Under **API Request Keys**, add a new public key.

See [API Request Signing](/docs/send-money/api-request-signing) for the full implementation guide.
