SwipeForMovie Developer

API Key Setup

Use the existing SwipeForMovie account for API key access.

SwipeForMovie account access stays in the main application. This developer site intentionally has no registration, login, cookie session, or account database.

Account flow

  1. Sign in at https://swipeformovie.com/login?next=%2Faccount.
  2. Open the account dashboard at https://swipeformovie.com/account.
  3. Create an API key in the developer account area.
  4. Copy it once and store it in your deployment platform's secret storage.

Copy the complete key immediately

SwipeForMovie displays the complete API key only after creation. After leaving or refreshing the page, the account area shows only its non-secret prefix. Revoke the key and create another one if the secret is lost.

Local API development

Operators can generate a development key from the catalog API project after its local D1 import and API-key migration have been applied:

npm run key:create -- --name="Development key" --plan=free

This is an internal operator command, not a public API. It prints the full key once and stores only its hash and logging prefix.

Rotation and revocation

Open the account dashboard and select Revoke key. Requests using that key stop authenticating after revocation. To rotate a key, revoke the current key and create a new one, then update your deployment secrets.
