API projects are a way to group related tasks together. They can be used to organize tasks by department, team, or any other category that makes sense for your organization.
Think of a API project as a collection of access tokens, API keys, webhooks,
analytics all bound to a single domain e.g. an API within your stack, a client
app vs. a serverside application, a product or even an environment.
It’s best practice to create a project per API service. For example, one of our popular customers, That API Company (who owns The Cat API and The Dog API), uses a project per API to ringfence the data and events.However, projects can be used in your organisation however you feel fit to use them!
The platform currently enables you to create projects in either: test or live mode.Having the two spaces enables you to keep your test keys separated, that you know will only ever be used in your local and preview environments. There is no difference in the infrastructure behind the environment.Projects and Keys are prepended with the markers:Live live_1i1AdjSvM5UsF---------------------Test test_1i1AdjSvM5UsF---------------------In the UI, you will see a toggle to switch between environments: test and live.
