API Authentication — Keys & Security Guide

Manage your Deepvue API keys, follow security best practices, and monitor API activity. Everything you need for secure authentication.

Overview

Deepvue uses API keys to authenticate requests. You must include valid API credentials with every API call. Requests made with invalid, deleted, or expired keys return authentication errors.

Locating your API keys

You can retrieve your API keys from the Deepvue Dashboard by navigating to the credentials section.

Security requirements

All API requests must use HTTPS. Unencrypted HTTP calls and unauthenticated requests will fail.

Best practices for key protection

  • Restrict access to API keys to only the personnel who need them
  • Do not store keys in version control systems
  • Use password managers or secrets management tools for secure storage
  • Never expose keys in client-side applications such as mobile apps or frontend code

Monitoring API activity

You can access your API request logs through the dashboard's dedicated logging section. Filter by date range and specific products to review your API usage history.
