When I am in range of a portal and when I click and hold, it displays 4 options.
- Hack
- Hack No Key
- Fire XMP
- Deploy
So whats the main difference between "Hack"ing a portal and "Hack No Key"ing a portal?
What’s the difference between “Hack” and “Hack No Key” options

Hack no key, as the name suggests, will give you no key. You can also achieve this via glyph hacking and signaling 'less' via the control channel, but this is a lot more convenient.
It is quite useful while farming for items, or travelling in a new area you know you need no keys from, but it's good for your explorer badge. Spares you getting rid of the keys later.
