# Host.io

{% hint style="info" %}
Host.io is a Threat Intelligence (TI) integration. TI Data Source integrations are used during investigations to improve analysis and in interactive chat to help answer questions. They are optional, but enabling more tooling integrations enhances Dropzone analysis.
{% endhint %}

The Dropzone platform integrates with Host.io to obtain information about URLs.

## Create an API Key

Host.io requires an API key to enable.

To obtain an API Key, do the following:

* Navigate to your [Host.io](https://host.io/login) account
* Navigate to Dashboard
* Copy the Authentication token displayed for use later in the Dropzone UI where it is called "API key"
