Setting an API Key in google colab

I have been working in Python for a short time and know I am trying to use and API that needs a key. I have been given a key consisting in a bunch of numbers and letters. When I search through the internet in order to learn how to "implement" the key I just get opinion and tips but no one talks about how to do it itself. I am using Google Colab.

Could you help me or direct me to some place where it is explained, please?

By default we don't have OS in Colab. Explicitly mention

import os
os.environ[#Your key name] = #API key in " " or ' '

I have issue for OPENAI Key, example as below:

import os
os.environ['OPENAI_API_KEY'] =  "##########################"

Here you have the code that you can use directly in Colab:

!pip install eiapy
import os
os.environ['EIA_KEY'] = you_API

from eiapy import Series
cal_to_mex = Series('EBA.CISO-CFE.ID.H')
cal_to_mex.last(5)

The last 3 lines are taken from the example at this link. I tried it now and it works for me!
