Get Your API Key

Public API keys should be created from the Criffy dashboard, then used as Bearer tokens for /api/v1/* public data endpoints.

​
Where to generate it

  1. Buy or upgrade to a Pro+ plan.
  2. Sign in to your Criffy account.
  3. Open Settings -> API.
  4. Generate your API key there.
This is the supported flow for public API access.

​
Usage and limits

Pro+ API keys currently include 60 requests per minute and 100,000 requests per calendar month. Monthly quota resets on the 1st day of each month at 00:00 UTC. Your current usage is available in Settings -> API. The dashboard usage widget shows your used requests, monthly limit, and reset date.

​
Important notes

  • Your account must have an active Pro+ subscription to use protected /api/v1/* endpoints.
  • The full plaintext key is only shown when it is created or regenerated, so store it securely right away.
  • Use the key as a Bearer token when calling public data endpoints.
  • If you need to rotate or revoke the key, do it again from Settings -> API.
  • Do not embed the key in browser or mobile client code.

​
Public integration boundary

Use the dashboard to create, rotate, or revoke API keys. Use the generated key as a Bearer token when calling public data endpoints. Dashboard account flows are separate from the public data API and are not the integration surface for server-to-server data access.
