API Reference

API keys
Traces authenticates your API requests using your account’s API keys.  Making an API request that doesn't include your key, includes incorrect or outdated key returns an error. If you don’t have a valid API Key contact your Traces Account Manager.
Test and Prod Keys
There are separate keys for testing and production workloads. All data submitted with a Test API key is removed automatically within 5 days and can not be restored. Auto Training Pipeline is not initiated with Test API calls. Use test API keys during the development and Prod API keys from production workloads.
Keeping your API keys safe 
Your API key can be used to make any API call on behalf of your account. 
Keep your API key as secure as any other password. 
Keep your API key out of your version control system. 
Share your API key only with those who need it.
Use secret management services and password managers
Should you think your API key has been compromised, contact your Traces Account Manager immediately.

 Codes in the 2xx range indicate success.
