API keys

Create the key your servers send with every lookup, copy it once, and revoke it when you need to.

Open API keys in the sidebar.

Create a key

Click Create key

Give it a name that says where it runs, like Production server or Signup checks.

Copy it

The key is shown once. Copy it into your server's environment variables or secrets manager. We only store a fingerprint of it, so it can't be shown again.

Use it

Send it in the x-api-key header on every request. See Authentication.

Your account has one active key at a time. To replace it, revoke the old one first, then create a new one.

The key list

Each key shows its name, the first and last characters of the key, when it was created, when it was last used and whether it's Active or Revoked.

Revoke a key

Click Revoke next to the key and confirm. Anything using it stops working right away, and it can't be undone. Revoke straight away if a key may have leaked.
