​
API key format

AtlasFlux API keys follow this format:
Examples:
  • af_live_a1b2c3d4e5f6... — Production key
  • af_test_a1b2c3d4e5f6... — Development key
The first 14 characters serve as the prefix and are stored in the database for lookup. The full key is only shown once at creation.

​
Creating keys

Create API keys from the Developer Dashboard:
  1. Click Create API key
  2. Enter a name
  3. Select environment (test or live)
  4. Optionally set a monthly spend limit
  5. Copy the full key — it will not be shown again

​
Key prefixes

The prefix is visible in the Dashboard and in request logs:

​
Key management

  • View — See all keys in the Dashboard (prefix only, not full key)
  • Rename — Change the key name
  • Revoke — Immediately invalidate a key
  • Revoke all — Immediately invalidate every active key for the account

​
Spending limits

You can set a monthly spend limit per key and an account-wide monthly limit in the Dashboard. AtlasFlux checks the estimated reservation before execution. A request that would exceed either limit receives a 402 spend_limit_exceeded response.
