API keys

Every request to the Dolphy API must include a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Keys are created at dolphy.chat/settings/api-keys and look like:
dpy_live_<32 random chars>
curl https://dolphy.chat/api/v1/models \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer dpy_live_..."
Keys are tied to your Dolphy account and bill against your account’s credit balance.

Membership requirement

API access requires an active Dolphy Membership. The membership covers the API key issuance — your actual API usage is paid separately from your credit balance. If you don’t have a membership yet, sign up at dolphy.chat/membership. It’s 14.99/mo(yearlyavailableat14.99/mo (yearly available at 99.99/yr) and unlocks 100 monthly bonus credits plus ~55% more credits per dollar on every future credit purchase.

Storing keys safely

Plain-text keys are shown only once, at creation time. We store a SHA-256 hash on our side; we never see your key after the moment you copy it. If you lose it, revoke and create a new one. Don’t:
  • Commit keys to git (we automatically scan public Github for exposed dpy_live_ keys and revoke matches)
  • Hardcode in client-side code (the key would ship to users’ browsers)
  • Share via email, Slack, or any unencrypted channel
Do:
  • Store in environment variables (DOLPHY_API_KEY)
  • Use a secrets manager (Doppler, 1Password, Vault, AWS Secrets Manager)
  • Create separate keys per environment (production, staging, local)
  • Revoke any key you suspect was exposed

Revoking keys

You can revoke keys at any time from dolphy.chat/settings/api-keys. Revocation is immediate — within a few seconds, all in-flight requests will start returning 401.
