    There’s a warning on Etsy’s Create a New App page that says: “It is against our API Terms of Use to instruct users to generate their own API key. If you are not a developer and you are creating an app at the instruction of someone else, reach out to API support at developer@etsy.com. API keys should not be shared publicly or with other parties.”

    Does this apply to using this Etsy Shop plugin?

    I sent an email to developer@etsy.com, to have more details on this.

    Hi. Any news on this. I’d like to install the plugin, but want to be sure that the API warning doesn’t apply in this case. Thanks!

    Just got an answer from Etsy today.

    I need to get more details, so I am waiting for a reply.

    For now, you may ask for an API Key as before. New Etsy API will be in place on 2021 Q3, I will give more info when I will have all the details.
