ErynoaGroup authenticates API requests using API keys passed as Bearer tokens in the Authorization header. This guide explains how to create keys, use them in requests, manage scopes, and handle authentication errors.

​
Generate an API key

1

Open your dashboard

Log into your ErynoaGroup dashboard at erynoa.group.
2

Navigate to API Keys

Go to Settings → API Keys and click Create API Key.
3

Configure the key

Give your key a descriptive name (e.g., production-backend, ci-pipeline). Select the appropriate scope:
4

Copy and store your key

Your key is shown only once. Copy it immediately and store it securely — in an environment variable, a secrets manager, or a vault.
Never commit API keys to version control or expose them in client-side code.

​
Use your API key

Include your API key in the Authorization header as a Bearer token on every request:
Store your API key as an environment variable and reference it in your code:

Rotate or revoke a key

To rotate a key:
  1. Create a new key in Settings → API Keys
  2. Update your application to use the new key
  3. Revoke the old key by clicking Revoke next to it in the dashboard
Revoking a key immediately invalidates it — any requests using the old key will receive a 401 response.

​
Multiple keys

You can create multiple API keys for different applications, environments, or team members. This lets you:
  • Audit which application made which request
  • Revoke access for a specific service without affecting others
  • Use read-only keys for services that only need to query data
