I can’t figure out how to reach support. I need to rotate my secret key in a non-disruptive manner. Thank you!

Regarding API keys, our engineering team is not willing to allow for changes with API keys since it affects ingestion and data loss if misused. API keys are also by nature public so it shouldn't matter (anyone can look at outgoing traffic from a device and see the API key). Therefore we are not supporting changing API keys at the moment.

Regarding secret keys, we are able to re-generate your project's secret key on the backend with the approval of an Admin. If you will like to submit a request to change the secret key, please respond with the following information:

  1. Project ID and name that you want to rotate the secret key for.
  2. 3 time options within the next 3 days that will be an optimal time for us to make this change. An agent will reach out and coordinate the exact time with you.
  3. Approval from an Admin of the project. If you are not an Admin, please CC an Admin in your reply.
