Generating TrueFoundry API Keys

TrueFoundry API Keys allow you to programmatically interact and perform actions on the TrueFoundry platform either using the CLI / Python SDK or HTTP API . Additionally they also allow you to access models via the AI Gateway.

This API Key can be provided to CLI / Python SDK via the TFY_API_KEY environment variable

There are two types of API Keys

• Personal Access Tokens
• Virtual Accounts

Personal Access Tokens

Personal Access Tokens have the same exact set of permissions that your current logged in user has.

📘

For production settings, prefer Virtual Accounts

Personal Access Tokens mirror the exact same set of permissions of your current user. Thus it might be too permissive in a production environment

Virtual Accounts

Virtual Accounts allow creating API Keys with limited permissions and expiration date, thus making them ideal for production settings or using them in C/I Actions

📘

Only Tenant Admins can create Virtual Accounts
