This endpoint generates a new API key for the authenticated user. Unlike the login endpoint which creates a session token, this creates a persistent API key that can be used for long-term API access.
This endpoint requires authentication. Use your existing API key or session token to create additional API keys.

  "api_key": {
    "name": "Production API Key",
    "token": "1|abc123xyz789abcdef...",

Example Request

curl -X POST https://call.aiployees.com/api/user/api-keys \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_EXISTING_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "Production API Key"
  }'
The API key token is only returned once. Make sure to store it securely. If you lose it, you’ll need to create a new one.
