# How do I reset my license key?

Learn how to reset your account license key using the AvaTax UI or API.

Use one of the following methods to reset your account license key.

-   Reset your license key through the AvaTax UI. Refer to [this article](https://help.avalara.com/Avalara_AvaTax_Update/Get_your_license_key) for more information.
-   Use the [AccountResetLicenseKey API](https://developer.avalara.com/api-reference/avatax/rest/v2/methods/Accounts/AccountResetLicenseKey/) to reset your license key. Please keep in mind the following when deciding to reset your license key:
    -   The `AccountResetLicenseKey` API is only available to account administrators for the account in question.
    -   Resetting the key breaks all existing connections instantly.
    -   When you call this API, all account administrators for this account will receive an email with the newly updated license key. The email will specify which user reset the license key and it will contain the new key to use to update your connectors.

Example request:

```
{
  "accountId": 123456789,
  "confirmResetLicenseKey": true
}
```
