An API key lets a tool authenticate to Rosey with a bearer token. You'll need one for direct API and bearer-token connections — Claude Desktop, Zapier without OAuth, and any MCP client like Cursor, VS Code, n8n, or your own scripts. One-click OAuth connections (Claude.ai and ChatGPT) don't need a key.
Create a key
Go to your Rosey dashboard at platform.getrosey.com.
Open Integrations (or Home) and click Create API key.
Copy the key when it's shown — you won't be able to copy this key again. Rosey keys begin with
rsy_.
Use a key
Send the key as an Authorization header on your requests:
Authorization: Bearer rsy_YOUR_KEY
Keep keys safe
Treat a key like a password — anyone with it can use your Rosey account, and the runs count against your plan.
Don't commit keys to source control or paste them into shared docs.
If a key is ever exposed, create a new one — that immediately revokes the old key.
Managing keys
You have one API key at a time. Creating a new key immediately revokes the previous one, so creating a new key is how you rotate or revoke access.
After you create a new key, update any connection still using the old key — Claude Desktop, scripts, and Zapier connected by key. One-click OAuth connections (Claude.ai and ChatGPT) aren't affected.
