Get an API Key

API keys are used for model calls; AK/SK credentials are used by compatible APIs that require Access Key ID and Secret Key signing. The two must not be mixed.

Creating an API Key

  1. Make sure your current workspace has at least one project.
  2. Open the API Keys page and click Generate API Key.
  3. Fill in the name, then choose the bound project and API version.
  4. Copy the full sk_live_ key immediately after creation. The full value is shown only once.

API Key created

Store the key as an environment variable:

export SILVAMUX_API_KEY="sk_live_YOUR_API_KEY"

Security Rules

  • Never put keys in browser code, logs, screenshots, or public repositories.
  • Use different keys for testing and production.
  • If a key leaks, revoke the old key first, then update your service configuration.
  • A full key cannot be recovered after it is hidden — create a new one if needed.
