Create and manage API keys

The Klovio API lets you connect Klovio to custom or in-house systems. Access is controlled by API keys. The API is available on the Business and Custom plans.

Create a key

1. Go to Settings → Developers → API keys.
2. Click Create key and give it a clear name (e.g. ERP sync).
3. Choose the environment — sandbox for testing, production for live.
4. Copy the key now — it’s shown once and can’t be retrieved later.

Keep keys safe

An API key is a credential. Treat it like a password:

• Never put it in front-end code, a public repo, or a shared document.
• Store it in your system’s secure configuration or secrets store.
• Use separate keys per integration, so you can revoke one without affecting the rest.

Revoke a key

If a key is exposed or no longer needed, revoke it from the same screen. Revoking is immediate — anything using that key stops working at once, so swap in a new key first.

Sandbox vs. production

Build and test against sandbox keys, which use non-live data. Switch to production keys only when your integration is proven.

Tip: name keys for where they’re used and rotate them periodically. A revoked-and-replaced key every few months is cheap insurance.
