Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Security tip: Never expose your API keys in client-side code. Use environment variables and server-side requests to protect your credentials.

API Key Format

All API keys start with rp_live_ and come with a free evaluation period. You can manage your key and usage in the dashboard.
