Transcrypts credentials enable you to access provider data from connected users. API keys are sensitive values that require secure management. This guide covers creating new keys, removing outdated keys, and implementing rotation procedures.
Dashboard Keys
The Transcrypts Dashboard provides tools for creating and managing API keys. This section applies to integrations that generate Orders through the dashboard interface.
Dashboard Steps
1. Create a new key
Generate a fresh key in the Transcrypts Dashboard.
2. Delete the old key
Remove unnecessary access_token values to reduce vulnerability exposure. Transactions already in pending status with the original key will continue processing normally.
