What is a Nevermined API Key? How to obtain it and how to use it

A Nevermined API Key is the simplest way to integrate with the Nevermined ecosystem. It's a string that contains data that identifies the session key of the account abstraction and some extra data such as the marketplace auth token. It works similar to a JWT but for blockchain accounts. You can find more information in the zeroDev docs.
