Authorizations

​
Authorization
string
header
required

An API key is a token that you provide when making API calls. Read more about how to secure your project.

Include the API key to the Authorization header, for instance:

-H 'Authorization: Bearer 6436fc5237b0d6e0d64253fbaac21d135012ecf1'

If you use a SDK, ensure you instantiate the client with the API key, for instance with JS SDK:

const client = new MeiliSearch({
  host: 'MEILISEARCH_URL',
  apiKey: '6436fc5237b0d6e0d64253fbaac21d135012ecf1'
});

Path Parameters

​
uidOrKey
string<password>
required

The uid or key field of an existing API key.

Response

The key has been removed.
