API keys

The API works without a key at the same limits a browser gets. A key raises the hourly ceiling and makes the rate-limit identity the key rather than your IP address, which matters if your team shares an outbound address.

Sign in with an email address — no password. We store only sha256(key), so the key is shown once at creation and cannot be recovered afterwards. Losing it means creating a new one.

Using a key

Every endpoint is described in the OpenAPI spec.

We use Google Analytics to see which pages get used. It sets cookies and sends data to Google. Nothing on this site needs it — declining costs you nothing. Privacy
