Hi @per1234 , thanks for correcting the links. LGTM!
The Arduino Cloud website was recently redesigned. Before the redesign, API keys were managed by selecting "API keys" from the navigation panel on the Arduino Cloud home page. That item was removed from the navigation panel and there is now a dedicated page for managing API keys. This means the instructions based on the old design are no longer correct. The new design allows us to point the user directly to the relevant page rather than sending them to the home page and then instructing them in how to navigate to the key management interface. That navigation process is slightly more complex with the new design so continuing with the previous approach of starting from the home page would require adding an additional step to the instructions.
The previous links redirected to the Arduino Cloud home page. Perhaps they were broken by changes to the website since the time the content was written.

The Arduino Cloud website was recently redesigned. Before the redesign, API keys were managed by selecting "API keys" from the navigation panel on the Arduino Cloud home page.

What This PR Changes
The outdated instructions for getting to the Arduino Cloud API key management interface are updated for the new Arduino Cloud site design.
The new design allows us to point the user directly to the relevant page rather than sending them to the home page and then instructing them in how to navigate to the key management interface. That navigation process is slightly more complex with the new design so continuing with the previous approach of starting from the home page would require adding an additional step to the instructions.
Some of the existing links to the "API Keys" page were broken, redirecting to the Arduino Cloud home page instead of the intended target. Those are updated to point to the current URL of the page.
Additional Context
This approach of directing the user to the "API Keys" page was already in use in some of the content:

An update of a graphic is also required but I'm not set up for that so I was not able to include that in this PR. I submitted an issue to track the task: #1615
