Authentication

Bearer keys held by runtime actors, with zero-downtime rotation built in.

Updated 2026-08-04

Authenticate with a bearer token:

bash
curl https://api.aigridapp.com/v1/models \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AIGRID_API_KEY"

Keys belong to runtime actors#

Keys (egw_live_…) are issued to runtime actors — non-human identities your organisation registers for services, jobs and agents. People sign in to the app; actors call the API. That split is what makes rotation, scoping and attribution clean.

Rotation with overlap#

Rotating a credential issues a new key while the old one keeps working for a 7-day overlap window, so deploys never scramble. Details in Runtime actors and keys.
