Create and manage API keys

An inference API key authorizes requests for its owning workspace. Give each integration a recognizable key so you can manage access without sharing one secret across unrelated projects.

Create a key#

1. Open API keys in the workspace that should own the requests.
2. Choose Create New Key to open the Create API key dialog.
3. Enter a useful name and review the available access and configuration fields.
4. Create the key and store the secret in your backend environment or secret manager.
5. Send a small authorized request and verify its result and recorded usage.

Manage existing keys#

Use the key’s actions to review or change its configuration. Check the name and workspace before deactivating or deleting a key, and replace the credential in dependent integrations when access changes.

Use the right credential type#

A Console inference key is different from a Provider Remote Access token, a device token or an application OAuth access token. The API map explains which interface accepts each credential.

Set access deliberately#

Restrict models and providers before giving an integration access. Provider accounts can also consult Priority over my Device.

First integration#

Make your first API request includes copyable examples with the full API URL.
