Cloud API — 5-minute quickstart
1
Create your account
Sign up at probeya.com/register. Your organization gets a unique subdomain: your-org.probeya.com.
2
Generate an API key
Go to Settings > API Keys > Create API Key. Name it (e.g., “dev-testing”) and copy the key immediately — it will not be shown again.
Your key looks like: probeya_sk_live_a1b2c3d4e5f6a1b2c3d4e5f6a1b2c3d4e5f6a1b2c3d4e5f6
Store your API key securely. Never commit it to version control. Use environment variables.
