What's New in Hindsight Cloud: Programmatic API Key Management

Hindsight Cloud keys can now create, list and revoke child keys limited to specific banks, straight from the API.

Hindsight Cloud now supports programmatic API key management. API keys with the Key Creator capability can create, list, and revoke bank-scoped child keys via the API — no admin or UI access required.

What You Can Do​

  • Create child keys — provision short-lived, least-privilege keys scoped to specific banks
  • Bank scope enforcement — child keys can only access banks within the parent key's scope
  • Expiration constraints — child keys cannot outlive their parent
  • Cascade revocation — revoking a parent key automatically revokes all of its children
  • Immutable children — programmatically created keys cannot have their bank scope edited; revoke and recreate instead
  • Audit trail — all key creation, revocation, and scope changes are logged with actor identity

Why This Matters​

If you're running a multi-tenant setup — one memory bank per customer, per agent, or per environment — you no longer need to manage keys through the dashboard. Your application can provision scoped keys on the fly, rotate them on a schedule, and revoke them instantly when access should end.

Combined with bank-scoped API keys (released March 9), this gives you a complete least-privilege key hierarchy: a parent key with Key Creator capability manages child keys that are each locked to specific banks.

Get Started​

Programmatic API key management is available now in Hindsight Cloud. Create a key with the Key Creator capability to start provisioning child keys via the API.
