Authentication

How to authenticate against the external API with platform API keys.

Bearer Token

All external API requests use bearer authentication:

Authorization: Bearer sk_live_...

Create the API key from Settings -> API Keys.

Key Lifecycle

  • Full API keys are displayed only once at creation time.
  • The platform stores only a hash and a short prefix.
  • Deleting an API key immediately revokes access.
  • Keys can be given scopes, an expiration time, and a request-per-minute limit.

Common Errors

  • invalid_api_key
  • scope_not_allowed
  • rate_limit_exceeded
  • api_disabled
