What Are API Keys and How Are They Used? | Dreamfactory

Application programming interface keys are an essential part of using APIs. But what are API keys, exactly? API keys are authentication tokens in the form of unique strings of characters that allow you to access the data or web services an API offers. They act as a form of user authorization, proving that you are authorized to make requests to the API. In this article, we will discuss how API keys work and how you can use them to access the data offered by APIs.

Monetizing a Gen-AI-Based ChatBot API by Metering Token Usage

For many Gen AI-based applications, usage-based billing is crucial. It is especially important if you are using third-party models that charge you for tokens used. You want to ensure that your cost of tokens used is covered by your customers, in addition to charging for your own value add. In this tutorial, we will build a quick Chat Bot API using OpenAI’s ChatGPT, and then use Moesif and Stripe to meter the number of tokens used and report the usage to Stripe to be charged.

The Critical Role of API Security in the Internet of Things (IoT)

From smart homes to wearable devices to connected cars, the Internet of Things (IoT) is bringing about a new era of hyper-connectivity. Experts expect investments in the IoT ecosystem to rise above $1 trillion in 2026 — with no signs of slowing down. Application programming interfaces (APIs) are the backbone of IoT, ensuring scalability and security across billions of connected devices.
