Welcome to Stack Auth’s weekly newsletter!

As a reminder, Stack Auth is an open-source project and we don’t put our logo or branding into your components, so we rely on the community to spread the word. If you enjoy using Stack Auth, we’d highly appreciate it if you could let your friends know.

New Features/Functionality

API Key Support for Users and Teams

Added the ability to create, validate, and manage API keys for users and teams for your backend.
Introduced backend API handlers and UI components for API key management.

From the dashboard, you can enable API keys by going to your Project > Project Settings then scroll down to the API Key Settings section. Here, you can enable both User API Keys, and Team API Keys.
