# API Keys (Coming Soon)

> Planned scoped API keys for programmatic access to Zwiron — not live yet; use the web app today.

API keys will allow external tools, scripts, and integrations to authenticate with the Zwiron API. Each key will have a role, an optional expiry date, and will be shown exactly once at creation.

<Warning>API keys are **not live yet**. The sections below describe the planned product. Until then, use the web app for pipelines, connections, and jobs. [Talk to us](mailto:support@zwiron.com) after your trial about paid plans.</Warning>

***

## Planned: creating an API key

1. Go to **Settings** → **API Keys**
2. Click **Create API key**
3. Choose a name, role, and optional expiry
4. Copy the key immediately — it will not be shown again

***

## Planned: using an API key

Requests will authenticate with a Bearer token. Exact endpoints and scopes will be published with the API reference when this ships.

***

## Security notes (when available)

* Store API keys in a secrets manager — never hardcode them in source code
* Rotate keys if they may have been exposed
* Prefer the least-privileged role for each integration
