I thought API keys were mostly for client authentication, so maybe option D is the right answer? I need to double-check my notes.

I feel like option C could be correct too, but isn't it more about the client rather than the developer? I'm a bit confused.

I remember a practice question that focused on identifying apps using API keys. So, I might lean towards option B for this one.

I think option A makes sense because API keys do help in authenticating developers, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the main benefit.
