API Key
posted by FatlessButtonSTAFFMOD on februāris 12, 2016 at 4:31 AM
Hi, couple of questions regarding API keys.
Should they be private to the user or are public keys allowed? (E.g in request headers). Where about's on the site can I apply for a commercial key?
Thanks,

Hi FatlessButton,
You should try to keep it private but in some circumstances I understand that's near impossible. Our web service is free so there isn't normally much pressure for someone to steal your key.
You can apply for a commercial key from the "API" section from within your account page.

Thanks Travis,
Could you send a link to the commercial key application? I can't seem to find it on the aforementioned page.

Hi FatlessButton,
When you go through the process to request an API key, you will be presented with 2 options, "Developer" and "Professional". "Professional" is the "Commercial" side.
Cheers.
