Can I create an API key via the FusionAuth API?

Is there an API call to create an API key?

For example, if I have a non-tenant specific API Key and would like to create a tenant specific API key, can I do so with the API?

There is no way to create API keys from the API.

You can bootstrap the system with an API key using Kickstart. Kickstart would allow you to create one or more API keys, which can optionally scoped to a tenant. More on Kickstart: https://fusionauth.io/docs/v1/tech/installation-guide/kickstart

However, this doesn't solve the issue of dynamically creating a tenant scoped API key. If that's a use case for which you need support, please file a github issue: https://github.com/fusionauth/fusionauth-issues with more detail.
