## Import private models
If you want to import private models from Hugging Face or Civitai, you need to configure your API keys first.
### 1. Generate your API keys
First, you need to generate API keys from the respective platforms:
1. Log in to Civitai and visit [https://civitai.com/user/account](https://civitai.com/user/account).
2. Generate your API key in the account settings.
1. Visit [https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens](https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens).
2. Generate your API token.
3. Make sure your token has read access to the repositories containing the private models you want to import.
### 2. Save your API keys
1. Go to [Comfy Cloud Settings](https://cloud.comfy.org) and navigate to the **Secrets** section.
2. Click to add your API keys (you can name the key anything you like):
3. Make sure your API keys have access permissions to the private models you want to import.
### 3. Import the private model
Once your API keys are configured, you can import private models using the same process as public models:
1. Get the model link from Hugging Face or Civitai.
