Request an API key

Reads on /api/ric/v1/* are public — no key required. You only need a key to create, update, or delete entities.

Fill in the form below. An admin will review and email you the key if approved, typically within one business day.

Keys can always be revoked later by the admin if abused. Rate limit: 1000 req/hour by default.

What happens next?

Your request goes to johan@theahg.co.za. The admin runs php artisan openric:issue-key <id> which generates a key and emails it to you. You can then test it against any write endpoint in the API Explorer.

I need a key right now for a demo

Email the admin directly and mention the submission ID you receive on this page. For one-off evaluations the capture tool can be pointed at your own server if you run one — see the getting-started guide.

Can I run my own OpenRiC server?

Yes — that's the whole point of the spec. Every OpenRiC-conformant server ships this exact page at /api/ric/v1/keys/request. The reference implementation is AGPL-3.0.
