What is an API key?

An API key is a unique string of characters issued by a platform that allows developers or applications to interact with the platform’s services. Acting like a password, it identifies the user or system making the request and grants access to specific features or data. API keys are often used in web development and cloud services to ensure that only authorized users can access certain functionalities.

What is an API token?

An API token is a secure, temporary credential that allows a user or application to authenticate with a platform or service. Tokens are often generated after a user logs in and are used to authorize specific actions for a limited period of time. Unlike API keys, which are static, API tokens typically expire after a set duration, providing a higher level of security.
