Why this guide matters

Projects and API keys are the two most important control surfaces for access governance in Customer Dashboard.

Project design recommendations

  • Use consistent naming (team-workload-environment).
  • Keep prod and non-prod in separate projects.
  • Add tags for cost center, owner, and compliance domain.

API key lifecycle

Create

  • Create keys per service integration, not per individual user.
  • Set explicit expiry dates where possible.

Store

  • Store keys only in secure secret managers.
  • Never embed keys in frontend bundles or repos.

Rotate

  • Rotate regularly and after personnel or ownership changes.
  • Prefer dual-key rotation windows to avoid downtime.

Revoke

  • Revoke immediately if compromise is suspected.
  • Remove unused keys to minimize attack surface.

Common workflows

  1. Create project for a new product surface.
  2. Create API key scoped to that project.
  3. Deploy with secure secret injection.
  4. Track last used and expiry from API key table.
  5. Rotate or revoke based on lifecycle policy.

Validation checklist

  • Every key is mapped to exactly one project and service owner.
  • Keys have expiry and rotation cadence.
  • Revocation process is documented and tested.
