Generating API Keys
Last updated

To use the Tylt API, you must generate a pair of credentials: an API Key and a Secret Key. API credentials are issued per service. Each enabled service has its own unique set of API keys and must be generated separately.
Navigate to Settings → API Keys in your Tylt Dashboard
Select the relevant service
Click Generate Key
A new set of credentials will then be issued for that service:
API Key: Used in the Authorization header of API requests to identify your account and service.
Secret Key: Used to generate HMAC-SHA256 signatures for request authentication and webhook verification. This key must be kept confidential and must never be exposed in client-side code.
Each service has its own separate API Key and Secret Key
API keys are environment-specific (Demo and Production)
Generating a new key for a service may invalidate the previously issued key for that service
Secret keys are only visible at the time of creation
Immediately after generating your API credentials, ensure they are stored securely.
API and Secret Keys cannot be retrieved after generation
If lost or compromised, new keys must be regenerated
Do not store keys in source code or expose them in frontend applications
Security Requirement: Store API credentials in a secure environment such as a secrets manager or encrypted storage. If you suspect any compromise, regenerate your keys immediately and update all integrations.
