title: "Keys API: manage API keys with Server SDKs"
date: 2026-04-14

API keys can now be created, updated, and deleted programmatically using the Appwrite server SDKs. Two new API key scopes, `keys.read` and `keys.write`, control access to the new endpoints.

This enables automated key provisioning for CI/CD pipelines, multi-tenant platforms, key rotation workflows, and any scenario where managing keys through the Console is not practical.
