Hi! I was wondering how to use the new v2 key to use on the WaniKani Stats website. I tried making a key and then plugging in it, but it kept telling me that it is an invalid key.

Does anyone know how to do it correctly? Thank you for your time!

The site wkstats is a 3rd party app, not anything WaniKani have made themselves.

You can get support for it in the thread [[STATS] Statistics site](https://community.wanikani.com/t/stats-statistics-site/12746)

Essentially though, you should go to your [API Key](https://www.wanikani.com/settings/personal_access_tokens) page, click Generate a New Token and then click Generate Token at the bottom of that page (without ticking any off the boxes) then copy the newly created code and go to [wkstats.com](http://wkstats.com), click Login at the top right and paste that code exactly as it appears into the box.

It should then give you your stats.
