## Parameters



### Body: application/x-www-form-urlencoded (object)

- **AccountSid** (string)
  The SID of the [Account](https://www.twilio.com/docs/iam/api/account) that created the Payments resource.
- **FriendlyName** (string)
  A descriptive string that you create to describe the resource. It can be up to 64 characters long.
- **KeyType** (string)
  The \`KeyType\` form parameter is used to specify the type of key you want to create.

  **Default Behavior**: If \`KeyType\` is not specified, the API will generate a standard key.

  **Restricted Key**: If \`KeyType\` is set to \`restricted\`, the API will create a new restricted key. In this case, a policy object is required to define the permissions.
- **Policy** ()
  The \`Policy\` object is a collection that specifies the allowed Twilio permissions for the restricted key.
  For more information on the permissions available with restricted API keys, refer to the [Twilio documentation](https://www.twilio.com/docs/iam/api-keys/restricted-api-keys#permissions-available-with-restricted-api-keys).
