I log into developer.twitter.com.
I click “Details” on my app.
I click “Keys and Tokens”.
Every time I regenerate Consumer API Keys, it seems to work. I get keys. I copy them.

Any time I leave my app in the developer site and then click “Details” again on my app, the Consumer API Keys I generated are gone.

Why is this happening? How do I keep my keys?

Welcome to the community
Yes, it’s Twitter’s attempt to keep your key secret safe by only showing the key once after you create it.
So you should keep it for yourself if you want to check it later when needed, just make sure to keep it safe.

It’s meant to show “None” under “Consumer API Keys” AFTER you’ve generated the keys? My access token and secret appear as all Xs which makes sense for keeping it secure. Just want to make sure that when the Consumer API Keys shows “none” that really means that I have keys and that I can use them.

Seems very counter-intuitive, especially with the access token/secret being handled completely differently on the same page.

Not sure if I understand your problem, but indeed the key will only appear and display once, so you should keep it to yourself as soon as you copy it.
