API Keys

Key Types

Type	Use Case
Production	Live environment with real transactions
Sandbox	Test environment for development and QA
Read-Only	Keys that can only query data (no write operations)
Full Access	Keys with write permissions (create transactions, manage users)

Key Management

1. Navigate to API Management > API Keys in the CRYMBO Platform
2. Click Create API Key
3. Select key type and permissions
4. Key is generated — store the secret securely (it is only shown once)
5. Use the key in your API requests via the Authorization header

Best Practices

• Rotate keys every 90 days
• Use separate keys for sandbox and production
• Apply least-privilege: only grant the permissions each key needs
• Monitor key usage via the Usage Monitoring dashboard
• Revoke unused keys promptly
