Getting an API Key

To use the Modbase API, you must create an API key from your account dashboard.

​
Create a Key

  1. Sign in to your Modbase account
  2. Navigate to the API Keys page:
    https://modbase.dev/me/api/keys
  3. Click Create API Key
  4. Copy the key and store it securely
Once created, the key can be used immediately for authenticated API requests.

​
Key Limits

Each Modbase account is subject to the following limits:
  • Maximum API keys per account: 5
  • Daily request limit: ~10,000 requests per day

​
Request Caching

Some API responses are cached to improve performance and reduce redundant processing. If a request can be fulfilled from cache - for example, when another user has already submitted the same text for moderation - that request will not count towards your daily 10,000 request limit. This allows efficient reuse of moderation results for commonly repeated phrases or words.

​
Authentication

All API endpoints require authentication using a Bearer token. Include your API key in the Authorization header of each request: 
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
