Generating a Key

  1. Log in to the Firewall Panel.
  2. Click on the API Keys tab in the main navigation.
  3. Click the Create Key or Generate New Key button.
  4. Key Name: Give it a descriptive name (e.g., “Main Panel Bot”).
  5. IP Restriction: (Optional but Recommended) Enter the IP address of the server that will use this key.
  6. Click Generate.

Security Basics

To keep your account secure when using API automation:
  • Restrict by IP: Only allow your own management server’s IP to use the key.
  • Unique Keys: Use a different key for every different application or team member.
  • No Hardcoding: Never store API keys in public GitHub repositories. Use environment variables (ENV) instead.

Revocation

If you suspect a key has been compromised (leaked), you must disable it immediately:
  1. Go to the API Keys tab.
  2. Find the key in the list.
  3. Click the Delete or Revoke icon.
  4. Any application currently using that key will lose access instantly.
