I bought the game as a gift to my main account and now I can't find the code, where should I look for?

Make sure uplay is installed in the newest version.
No key should be needed when starting the game and associate it with the right account

Keep in mind that it's then Ubisoft Connect and not Uplay anymore. Otherwise people perhaps download the wrong thing.

As said, cd keys aren't needed anymore.

Note that most Ubisoft games automatically connect and launch Ubisoft Connect and authorizes the game that way via an API call. Basically it works like

* Launch game X on steam
* steam launches Ubisoft Connect
* steam says "hey Ubisoft Connect I want to play game X"
* Ubisoft connect goes "ok I see you are Steam Account A, yes indeed that account does own game X"
* Ubisoft Connect launches Game X

As such there is no cd-key necessary as that's all done in the back end. Ubisoft knows that a particular account owns game X on steam. And when steam asks to play that game, Ubisoft just checks its own database whether that account owns that game.

You already linked you Steam account to a particular Ubisoft account for playing that game. Log into Ubisoft Connect with that account
