Resetting your API key on Adjutor allows you to generate a new, secure key if the original one is lost or compromised. This ensures uninterrupted access to your application while keeping your integration secure.
In the case where a developer accidentally deletes their saved API key or suspects it’s been exposed. Instead of losing access to the app, they quickly reset it from the dashboard and continue operations securely.
For example, an organization using Adjutor to power their financial services loses internal documentation containing their API key. To avoid service disruption, the team resets the API key through Adjutor and updates their integration with the new credentials immediately.
