All About Your API Keys

Learn how to create, manage, view, copy, and rotate API keys, understand the difference between public and private keys, and access the Jetron Fluid API documentation.

Written by Tosin

API keys allow you to securely connect your applications and services to Jetron Ticket. They are used to authenticate requests when working with Jetron Ticket services and the Jetron Fluid API.

You can manage your API keys from Manage API Keys in the main navigation.

Jetron Fluid Documentation

The API Keys page includes a View Documentation button. Click this button to access the Jetron Fluid documentation, where you can find information about integrating with the API, available endpoints, authentication, and how to use your API keys.

Creating API Keys

Before using the Jetron Fluid API, you need to create your API keys.

To create your API keys:

  1. Go to Manage API Keys from the main navigation.

  2. Follow the prompts to create your API keys.

  3. Once created, your API keys will appear on the API Keys page.

The page displays your keys along with their type, last used date, and creation date.

API Key Types

Jetron Ticket provides two types of API keys:

  • Private: Used for authenticated requests that require a secure server-side environment.

  • Public: Used for requests that can safely be made from a client-side environment.

Use each key only in the environment it is intended for. Keep your private API key secure and do not expose it in publicly accessible code.

Viewing and Copying API Keys

API keys are masked on the API Keys page for security.

You can use the eye icon to view a key and the copy icon to copy it when needed.

Treat your API keys as sensitive credentials, particularly your private key. Do not share your private key or include it directly in publicly accessible frontend code.

Rotating an API Key

The Rotate option allows you to replace an existing API key with a new one.

To rotate a key:

  1. Locate the API key you want to replace.

  2. Click Rotate.

  3. Review the confirmation message.

  4. Click Rotate to confirm.

Important: Rotating an API key immediately invalidates the current key and generates a new one. Any services using the existing key will stop working until they are updated with the new API key.

Make sure you update any applications or services using the old key after rotation.
