Authentication

The DraftLift API uses API keys for authentication. Keys are scoped to your account and can be created from the Settings page.

​
Creating an API key

  1. Navigate to Settings > API Keys in your DraftLift dashboard
  2. Click Create API Key and give it a descriptive name
  3. Copy the key immediately — it is only shown once

​
API key format

dl_live_a1b2c3d4e5f6g7h8i9j0k1l2m3n4o5p6
Keys always start with dl_live_ for easy identification.

​
Using your key

Include the key in the Authorization header: 
Authorization: Bearer dl_live_your_key_here

​
Key management

  • Revoke a key at any time from Settings — it takes effect immediately
  • Rename keys to keep them organized
  • Monitor usage per key from the Settings page

​
Requirements

API access requires a Business or Agency plan. Starter and Pro users will see an upgrade prompt on the API Keys settings tab.
