API rate limits and authentication

The CreaScale REST API is available on the Enterprise plan. Generate an API key from Settings → API Keys. Authentication is Bearer token over HTTPS only.

Example: curl -H "Authorization: Bearer cs_live_xxxxxx" https://api.creascale.ai/v1/runs

Rate limits: 60 requests per minute per API key (burst tolerant up to 120), 1000 pipeline runs per day, 5000 smaller endpoints (history, credits, status) per day. Exceeded requests return 429 with a Retry-After header.

Keys can be revoked instantly from the dashboard. We recommend one key per environment (dev / staging / prod) and IP allow-listing for additional hardening — available on request.
