Features

API Keys

Manage API keys for SDK authentication.

API keys authenticate the SDK and direct API calls.

Create a key

  1. Open an environment → API Keys
  2. Click Create API Key
  3. Name it (e.g., "prod-workers") and copy it (shown once)

Formats

  • sk_live_... — production
  • sk_test_... — non-prod

Best practices

  • One key per environment
  • Store in a secrets manager, not git
  • Rotate on a schedule or after sharing incidents
# .env example
QUEUEDASH_API_KEY=sk_live_...

Revoke and replace

  1. Find the key → Revoke
  2. Create a new key
  3. Deploy the new value to your workers

Keys inherit environment permissions. They cannot change billing or team settings.
