Authentication

Learn how to authenticate with the Limitry API

All Limitry API requests require authentication using a Project API Key.

Getting Your API Key

Log in to the Limitry Dashboard
Navigate to your project settings
Copy your API key from the "API Keys" section

Using Your API Key

Include your API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer lm_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

With the SDK

import { Client } from '@limitry/sdk';

const client = new Client({
  apiKey: 'lm_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
});

from limitry import Client

client = Client(api_key="lm_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx")

Security Best Practices

Never commit API keys to version control
Use environment variables to store keys
Rotate keys regularly
Use different keys for different environments

Environment Variables

const client = new Client({
  apiKey: process.env.LIMITRY_API_KEY!,
});

import os
from limitry import Client

client = Client(api_key=os.getenv("LIMITRY_API_KEY"))
