Authentication

Get Your API Key

All API requests require authentication. Learn how to get and use your API key.

Getting an API Key

Create an API key from the Dashboard. Each key can be named and has its own usage tracking.

Go to Dashboard → API Keys

Click "Create New Key" and give it a name

Using Your API Key

Include your API key in the Authorization header of every request.

GET/v1/memories

curl -X GET "https://api.hebbrix.com/v1/memories" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"

Python

# Python SDK handles authentication automatically
from hebbrix import Hebbrix

client = Hebbrix(api_key="mem_sk_your_api_key")

# Or set via environment variable
# export HEBBRIX_API_KEY="mem_sk_your_api_key"
client = Hebbrix()  # Auto-reads from env

TypeScript

// TypeScript SDK
import { Hebbrix } from 'hebbrix';

const client = new Hebbrix({
  apiKey: 'mem_sk_your_api_key'
});

// Or use environment variable
// HEBBRIX_API_KEY="mem_sk_your_api_key"
const client = new Hebbrix(); // Auto-reads from env

API Key Format

Hebbrix API keys start with mem_sk_ followed by a unique identifier.

Security Best Practices

Never expose your API key

Don't commit API keys to version control or include them in client-side code. Use environment variables instead.

Use Environment Variables

Store keys in .env files that are gitignored.

Rotate Keys Regularly

Create new keys periodically and delete old ones from the dashboard.

Use Separate Keys

Create different keys for development, staging, and production.

Monitor Usage

Check the dashboard for unusual activity or unexpected spikes.

Rate Limits

Rate limits vary by endpoint and subscription tier. Check the response headers for current limits.

Tier	Requests/min	Monthly Calls
Free	10	1,000
Pro	100	100,000
Enterprise	Custom	Unlimited
