Get an API key

Sign in with your VocaFlare account, name the key, copy it. The key is shown once and then only its first and last characters appear here.

Before you ship it

• Keys are secret. Keep them on a server, never in a mobile binary or a browser bundle. See Authentication.
• Use a separate key per environment. Usage is reported per key, and a leaked staging key can then be revoked on its own.
• Revoking takes effect within a minute. There is no grace period; rotate by creating the new key first, deploying, then revoking the old one.

What a trial key gets you

Enough to build and test against the live index, not enough to serve production traffic. The limits page shows the current numbers, and GET /usage reports what a key has spent.

For production volume, write to [email protected] with what you are building.
