API keys allow you to authenticate requests to the Jelou API from external applications or services. With them you can send messages, manage campaigns, query conversations, and more, programmatically.

​
Accessing API Keys

To manage your API keys, go to Settings > API Keys in the side menu.

You will see a table with all existing API keys in your account, including:
  • Key: Partially hidden identifier of the key
  • Creation date: When it was generated
  • Actions: Available options for each key

The key is only shown once. Copy it and store it in a safe place before closing the dialog. If you lose it, you will need to create a new one.

​
Delete an API key

To delete a key you no longer need, click the delete icon (trash can) in the Actions column of the corresponding key. A confirmation dialog will be shown before proceeding.

Deleting an API key is an irreversible action. Any integration using that key will stop working immediately. Verify that no active service depends on the key before deleting it.

​
Use your API key

Include the API key in the x-api-key header of your HTTP requests: 
curl --request GET \
  --url https://gateway.jelou.ai/platform/v1/company/{companyId} \
  --header 'x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY'

const response = await fetch(
  "https://gateway.jelou.ai/platform/v1/company/{companyId}",
  {
    headers: {
      "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY",
    },
  }
);

import requests

response = requests.get(
    "https://gateway.jelou.ai/platform/v1/company/{companyId}",
    headers={"x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY"},
)
Check the API reference to see all available endpoints.

Best practices

  • Do not share keys in public repositories or messages. Use environment variables to store them.
  • Rotate your keys periodically. Create a new key, update your integrations, and delete the old one.
  • Use one key per integration. If a key is compromised, you can revoke it without affecting other services.
