API authentication

Programmatic clients can authenticate with an organization API key using either header:

  • X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY
  • Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY (OpenAI-SDK-compatible)

If both are sent on the same request, X-API-Key takes precedence.

Keys use the ela_ prefix. Create and revoke keys under Settings → API Keys in the app.

For full examples (curl, OpenAI SDK, proxy URLs), see the published API reference (API Keys and API Reference sections).
