API keys

Manage your keys in the Entrim Dashboard under API Keys.

Several keys, one account​

You can have up to 10 active API keys for each product. Give each app, environment or teammate its own key, so you can replace or remove one without touching the others.

All keys of a product share your account's limits:

  • Rate limits. Requests per minute and concurrent requests are counted across all your keys together. Adding a key does not add capacity.
  • Credits and spending. Every key uses the same credit balance, or counts toward the same spending limit on Model API postpaid. When the balance runs out or the limit is reached, every key stops until you top up or raise the limit.

Create a key​

  1. Open API Keys in the dashboard and choose Create API key.
  2. Give the key a name you will recognise later, such as production or ci.
  3. Copy the secret and store it somewhere safe. It is shown only once.

Rotate a key​

Rotate key replaces a key with a new secret in one step. The old secret stops working immediately. Rotate a key when it may have leaked, or on a regular schedule. You can rotate a key even when you already have 10.

Revoke a key​

Revoke switches a key off for good. Requests that use it are refused from then on, and this cannot be undone. Revoked keys stay in the list, marked Revoked, and no longer count toward your 10 keys.
