We are calling this "project API key" in many places even though this is technically wrong. We are going to be calling this "project token" going forward to avoid both internal and external confusion. Token is meant to imply this is safe to be shared publicly as opposed to a private API key. Companion PR in the posthog/posthog.com repo is PostHog/posthog.com#15229
