Bearer credentials

Send the application credential in the Authorization header using the Bearer scheme.

http
Authorization: Bearer <api_key>

Credential safety

Keep credentials in backend secret storage, never browser code.

Use sandbox credentials only with sandbox endpoints.

Assign the minimum required scopes.

Rotate credentials regularly and revoke a credential immediately if exposure is suspected.

Never include credentials in logs, support messages, URLs, or screenshots.

Rotation

Create a replacement credential, update the integration, verify successful traffic, and then revoke the previous credential. Audit logs record creation, rotation, and revocation events.
