We keep authentication simple. Every request just needs your API key passed in the Authorization header as a Bearer token. 
Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

How to get a key

We’ve split our key generation to make sure you get exactly what you need, instantly.

​
1. Free & Pro Keys (Automated)

If you just want to start building, analyzing data, or testing your bots, use our automated Telegram integration.

Get a Free or Pro Key

Open @chadsapibot → Tap Get API Key → Join the channel → Pick your tier.Your key is generated and ready to use immediately.

​
2. Enterprise Keys (Manual)

If you’re running a production system that requires webhook push delivery, entirely unlimited rate limits, and dedicated support, you need an Enterprise key.

Request Enterprise Access

DM @alrerat directly on Telegram. Tell us what you’re building, your expected volume, and we’ll provision a custom key for your backend.

Pro keys are completely free for the first 30 days. When it expires, your key will automatically downgrade to the Free tier, so your integration won’t completely break — it’ll just get rate-limited and delayed formatting.

Test Your Key

Want to make sure everything is working? Hit the /me endpoint. It’ll bounce back your exact tier features and how much of your rate limit you’ve chewed through today. 
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY_HERE" \

Security

Keys follow this format: sk_live_ followed by a high-entropy random string. Example: sk_live_Kr_Ohzog-pwKB64HmOk7uGf-Q86Zde5kpyD1F2IVDzA
Treat your key like a password. We hash these in our database, meaning if you lose it, we cannot recover it for you. Never commit your key to a public GitHub repository or expose it in client-side frontend code.
