"It is against our API Terms of Use to instruct users to generate their own API key. If you are not a developer and you are creating an app at the instruction of someone else, reach out to API support at developer@etsy.com. API keys should not be shared publicly or with other parties."

It's not against Etsy's policy to create API. In the message, it says it's against instructing users to generate their API key (if you are not a developer). There is no issue in creating an API key for Etsy.
