Create, store and revoke API keys

1. Open API keys in the dashboard.
2. Choose to create a key and name it after the application that will use it.
3. Copy the key right away. It is shown once and cannot be recovered.

Send the key as a bearer token. Keys begin with lv_live_.

1curl -X POST https://YOUR_API_HOST/v1/phone \
2  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOOKVALID_API_KEY" \
3  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
4  -d '{"phone":"+14155552671"}'

• Keep keys in environment variables or a secret manager, never in source control or browser code.
• Use one key per application so you can revoke one without touching the others.
• If a key leaks, revoke it in the dashboard. A revoked key stops working on the next request.

We store only a hash and a short prefix of each key, so we cannot show you a key again.
