Settings

Property-wide credentials and access. API keys for the VeryQuery API live here. Looking for the selectivity dial? It moved to Search Lab, where you can adjust it and immediately try a query against the new value.

API keys

API keys authenticate calls from your own integrations to VeryQuery's /v1/* endpoints. Each key is scoped to one property. Use them when you have a backend that needs to call VeryQuery directly (a headless storefront, a custom theme, an indexing script).

Creating a key

  1. Open Settings from the sidebar.
  2. Scroll to API keys.
  3. Click Create key, give it a label (e.g. "production storefront", "indexing job"), and copy the key. The full key is shown once at creation; we store only the hash.

Treat the key like a password. Anyone with it can read and write to your property's catalog and search the same way you can.

Rotating and revoking

Rotate
Create a new key, swap it into your code, then revoke the old one.
Revoke
Click the trash icon next to the key. Revoked keys stop working immediately and can't be recovered.
