Other: Request to upgrade system api keys functionality
Not planned
Once a System API is created, the UI doesn’t allow editing the JSON to add or modify conditions (like new connectors or destinations). Fivetran support mentioned it can be done from the backend, but that still requires admin users to have an API key.
Given the security requirement to restrict and rotate API keys, the intent was for the System API key to fully replace user based API keys, allowing us to remove the user-based API key option from the Fivetran UI itself for an account

Hi Reuben,
Thank you for taking the time to submit your request regarding upgrading our system API keys functionality. We appreciate your input and interest in improving Fivetran. While we are discussing making System API Keys feature GA, we are looking to eventually replace System API Keys with a more comprehensive feature for Service Account API Keys that will fulfill both rotation and UI driven update for adding sources/destinations. I'll reach out to you and your Fivetran account team about the System API Keys GA timeline.
Thanks again for sharing your feedback!
Best regards,
Pieter Humphrey
