API keys

Create keys for the API, the CLI, and MCP clients.

An API key is org-scoped and carries full org access — it is not scoped to your own permissions. Treat it accordingly.

This is also where you get the key for connecting Claude Code or Cursor to mcp.smoo.ai.

How to

  1. 1

    Create a key and copy it immediately.

    It is shown once.

  2. 2

    Use it as a bearer token against api.smoo.ai, or as the Authorization header for mcp.smoo.ai.

  3. 3

    Revoke keys you are not using.

If something goes wrong

Requests 401 with an apparently correct key.
A trailing newline from a copy-paste or an echo pipe is the usual cause — the value is compared byte for byte.
