MituAI APIs use API keys to authenticate requests and associate them with your account.
Each API key must be included in the x-api-key HTTP header of every request made to the API.
API keys are sensitive. Do not expose them in client-side code, browser-based applications, or public repositories.
You can generate and manage your keys directly from your dashboard.

​
Getting your API key

To create an API key for use in your application:
  1. Visit https://app.mitu.ai
  2. Go to Developer → API Keys
  3. Click New API Key
  4. Enter a descriptive label for your key (e.g. CRM Integration, Loan Payment Reminder )
  5. Click Submit
  6. Copy the key immediately, as it will not be shown again
If you lose the key, simply revoke it and generate a new one.

​
Making authenticated requests

To make requests to the API, include your API key in the x-api-key header of every API call. Here’s a basic example using curl: 
curl https://api.mitu.ai/v1/agents \ -H “x-api-key: YOUR_SECRET_API_KEY” \
-H “Content-Type: application/json”

​
Revoking & rotating API keys

You can revoke a key at any time from your dashboard:
  • Navigate to Developer → API Keys
  • Click Revoke next to the key
  • Once revoked, any requests using that key will immediately return 403 Forbidden
For enhanced security, create separate keys for staging and production environments, and rotate them periodically.

​
Best practices

  • Use a different key for each environment (development, staging, production)
  • Store your keys securely using environment variables or secret managers
  • Monitor usage and revoke unused keys
  • Do not embed API keys in frontend code or public repositories
You’re now ready to start integrating with the Mitu API securely.
