API keys
An API key is a credential that lets an outside system — a script, an integration, or another app — work with CloudRaker on its own, without a person clicking through the app. You manage keys on the API keys page under the Admin group.
API keys is admin-only, like the rest of the Admin group. If you don’t see it in the sidebar, ask an admin.
The API keys page
Open Admin → API keys in the sidebar. The page description reads “Create and revoke API keys for programmatic access to your organization.”
The page lists every key in your organization. Use it to create new keys and revoke ones you no longer need or that might be exposed.
Treat an API key like a password. Anyone who has it can act against your organization through the API. Store keys somewhere safe, and revoke any key you suspect has leaked.
Using a key
An API key is a bearer credential for the CloudRaker API at https://api.cloudraker.com. Send it as the bearer token on your requests, and your calls run against your organization.
