Intro
The API Keys API lets you create, list, and revoke API keys for your organization. Two key types are supported:- Personal keys — tied to a user, inherit the user’s RBAC permissions
- Service keys — no user association, scoped to specific projects with ADMIN access. Ideal for CI/CD, scaffolding tools, and service-to-service integrations
Authentication
Requires an organization-level API key withorganization:manage permission. Pass it as a Bearer token:

Key Types
Personal Keys
Created for a specific user. The key’s effective permissions are the intersection of the key’s bindings and the user’s own role bindings (the “ceiling” model).Service Keys
Created without a user association (userId: null). Scoped to specific projects via projectIds. Each project gets an ADMIN binding automatically.
Service keys without
projectIds get org-wide ADMIN access. Always scope to specific projects when possible.
