🔐 How to Create and Use Your NiamonX API Key

This guide explains how to create your API key, keep it secure, and start making requests to the NiamonX API v2.

1. Requirements

To generate an API key, you must have an active paid plan.
Free-tier users cannot create or use API keys.

2. Creating an API Key

Visit the official key generation page:

Once your subscription is active, click “Create API Key.”

⚠️ Important:
After generation, the key will not be displayed again.
It is securely stored in the database as a SHA-256 hash, meaning even NiamonX staff cannot recover it.

Keep your key safe — store it in an encrypted password manager or an environment variable.
