Authentication

API Key (recommended)

Generate an API key from the Datagate dashboard. Keys start with dg_live_ and are shown once — store it securely.

from datagate import DatagateClient

client = DatagateClient(api_key="dg_live_...")

import { DatagateClient } from "datagate";

const client = new DatagateClient({ apiKey: "dg_live_..." });

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer dg_live_..." \
  https://api.getdatagate.com/v1/datasets/discover

JWT Access Token

If you authenticate via the login flow (email + 2FA), you receive a 15-minute JWT access token. This is primarily used by the dashboard, but SDKs accept it too:

client = DatagateClient(access_token="eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9...")

const client = new DatagateClient({ accessToken: "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9..." });

Both methods use the same Authorization: Bearer <credential> header. The SDK does not handle login or token refresh — the caller provides a valid credential.

Key Management

Action	Endpoint	Notes
Generate/rotate	`POST /v1/auth/api-keys`	Replaces any existing key. Raw key shown once.
Revoke	`DELETE /v1/auth/api-keys`	Deletes key, no replacement.

Manage your API key from the dashboard under API Keys.

Environment Variables

For MCP servers and CI/CD, set your key as an environment variable:

export DATAGATE_API_KEY="dg_live_..."
