Q: How does this work?
Hi,
We have our saas tool with its own API endpoints. Now we want to have authentication via some kind of secret or API keys. So when a user makes a call to our endpoint, they are required to use the API key they generated.
1. How does this work? I mean how can I allow my users to generate their API keys THEMSELVES, and manage it?
2. How will it get integrated to my API endpoints? Do I need to adjust my backend code to make sure it looks for these API keys as well?
Thanks

1. You can use our pre-built UI component in your dashboard. This allows the user to issue, delete and manage their own API keys, without you having to do anything. If you prefer to build your own UI, then that is also possible.
2. Yes in your backend code, you will drop our middleware function (or use our SDKs). Our code will ensure that the keys are valid and do all the necessary checks before returning control to your handler.
With each purchase, we are offering a zoom call to understand and help with the use-case, so you are setup for success asap.
