  1. Create an API key in the Simple8 application under API Keys.
  2. Copy the key immediately. Simple8 stores only a secure hash and cannot display the full key again later.
  3. Send the key in the authorization header: Bearer s8_live_... from your server.
  4. Use the last-used timestamp to identify active keys.
  5. Replace a key by creating a replacement, updating your service and revoking the old key.
  6. Revow any unlocked or unused key immediately.

Requirement: The workspace is active and the email address of an owner or administrator has been confirmed.

Security warning

Treat an API key like a password. Store it in a secure key vault on the server and replace it immediately if exposed.

Never display a real key in screenshots or examples.
