Step 4: Add a Remark (Optional)

While creating your API key, you can optionally add a remark to label or describe the key for future reference.

Step 5: Set Expiry (Optional)

Optionally set an expiration date for your API key. This is useful for temporary keys or enhanced security.

Step 6: Copy the API Key

Once the API key is generated, you can copy it using the copy button. The API key will always be accessible in your dashboard, though it will be displayed in a masked format (showing only the first and last few characters). You can copy the full key at any time using the copy button next to each key in the API Keys section.


Using Your API Key

Now that you've created your API key, you're ready to start using it to authenticate your requests to the SimpleCold Email Validation API. Your API key should be included in the Authorization header of all API requests using Bearer token authentication.
