Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about API Key Management.
What is the safest way to manage API keys?
Keys should never be stored in plain text. Zuplo handles the entire lifecycle: secure storage (hashed), issuance, and validation, removing the burden of building your own auth service.
How do I implement API key rolling/rotation?
Rotation minimizes the impact of a leaked key. Zuplo provides a management API and UI that allows you (or your users) to roll keys instantly without downtime, invalidating the old key immediately.
Can I associate metadata with an API key?
Yes. You often need to know who a key belongs to (e.g., User ID, Plan Type). Zuplo allows you to attach arbitrary metadata to keys, which is then accessible in your code for custom logic or analytics.
How does Zuplo secure API keys at the edge?
Validation must be fast. Zuplo replicates hashed keys to the edge, allowing it to validate authentication locally in milliseconds without hitting a central database, ensuring high performance.
Can I create API keys that expire automatically?
Yes. Temporary access is crucial for security. Zuplo supports setting expiration dates on keys, making them ideal for contractors, temporary integrations, or limited-time trials.
