API Key Expiration

API keys can expire when the plan cycle or subscription access tied to the key ends.

Expiration helps ensure that API access follows the current account and billing state.

Why Keys Can Expire​

An API key may have an expiration date because it is connected to:

  • A plan cycle.
  • A subscription renewal date.
  • A paid checkout activation.
  • Account access status.

Not every account state is the same, so always check the API Keys page for the current key status.

Where to See Expiration​

You can view key expiration or renewal information in:

The API key card may show a renewal or expiration date if one is available.

What Happens When a Key Expires​

When a key expires, API requests using that key may fail.

Common symptoms include:

  • Authentication errors.
  • Invalid API key responses.
  • Requests that previously worked no longer succeeding.

How to Regain Access​

To regain access:

  1. Confirm your current plan status.
  2. Check whether the key is active.
  3. Renew, change, or activate a plan if needed.
  4. Copy the current API key from the dashboard.
  5. Update your application environment variable or secret manager.

If payment succeeded but the key did not update, refresh the API Keys page and contact support if the issue remains.
