API Key Security Best Practices
- • Never commit API keys to version control
- • Use environment variables to store sensitive keys
- • Rotate keys regularly (monthly or quarterly)
- • Use key prefixes to easily identify key types
- • Limit API key permissions to what's necessary
- • Enable monitoring and alerts for unusual API activity
- • Use different keys for development, staging, and production
- • Revoke keys immediately if they're compromised
Key Format
Generated API keys follow a common format:
sk_[32 random alphanumeric characters]
This format is inspired by platforms like Stripe, Auth0, and other major API providers.
