API License Keys

One key unlocks the entire Interzoid platform: APIs, wizards, database tools, and sample applications

Every Interzoid account includes a single API license key that unlocks the entire platform. The same key authenticates direct API calls, powers the browser-based wizards (including the Data Matching Wizard), drives the database connectivity tools, and runs the browser-based sample applications hosted in the cloud. When you register, your account is automatically provisioned with a license key and a number of starting credits, giving you immediate, unrestricted access to every tool Interzoid offers.

This design keeps the platform frictionless: one credential, one credit balance, and one usage history, with no separate logins, per-tool subscriptions, or additional configuration required. This guide explains how license keys work, where to find yours, how to include it in your own code, and how credit usage is tracked across the platform.

1How License Keys Work

An Interzoid API license key is a unique string of characters tied to your account. A single key works everywhere on the platform: direct API calls, wizards, database tools, MCP server, and sample apps all authenticate with the same credential. It serves three purposes:

Authentication: The key identifies your account on every request, whether it comes from your own code, a wizard session in your browser, or a database integration job.
Usage Tracking: Every call made with your key, from any tool or application, is logged centrally so credit consumption and request history are reported in one place on your account dashboard.
Credit Management: Your key is linked to a single credit balance shared across the entire platform, including free starting credits and any purchased credit packages.

Security: Treat your API license key like a password. Don't commit it to public source control, and don't share it in forums or email threads. If you believe your key has been exposed, you can rotate it from your account management page.

2Getting Your API License Key

Registering for an Interzoid account is free and takes less than a minute. Once registered:

Create an account on the Interzoid registration page. A license key is generated automatically as part of the sign-up process.
Receive starting credits added to your account immediately, enabling you to begin calling APIs right away without any payment.
View your key at any time on the account management page, along with your current credit balance and recent usage.

3Using Your Key in API Calls

Every call to an Interzoid API includes your license key as the license query parameter. The API uses this value to authenticate the request and deduct the appropriate number of credits from your account.

Example API Call

$ curl "https://api.interzoid.com/getcompanymatch?license=YOUR_LICENSE_KEY&company=IBM+Corporation"

Here is an example of a license key used as part of an API call, as shown in an interactive API console:

Tip: All Interzoid APIs accept license as a standard query-string parameter. Check the API directory for the exact signature and required parameters of each endpoint.

4Using Your Key Across Interzoid Tools

The same license key that authenticates your API calls also works across every tool and application on the Interzoid platform. There is no separate login, no per-tool subscription, and no additional configuration. Every tool simply asks for your key, and all usage flows against the same account balance.

Where the License Key Is Used

Tool	How the Key Is Entered
Data Matching Wizard	Entered in the key field in the header bar; saved in the browser for future sessions
Other Browser-Based Wizards	Entered in the key field at the top of each wizard (data enrichment, standardization, and more)
Database Connectivity Tools	Supplied as a configuration parameter alongside database connection details
Sample Applications	Entered in the key field within each browser-based sample app, which runs in the cloud
Direct API Calls	Passed as the `license` query-string parameter on each HTTP request

Here is an example of a license key being used in the Data Matching Wizard:

No separate charge: The wizards and tools themselves do not carry a usage fee. Credits are deducted only for the underlying API calls they make while processing your data, so you are billed the same way whether you call the APIs directly or drive them through any of the tools.

5Credits and Usage Tracking

Every request made with your license key, regardless of which tool or application originated it, consumes credits from the same account balance. Credits and usage are tracked centrally and visible in your account dashboard, giving you a single view of all activity across the platform.

Item	Description
Starting Credits	Free credits automatically added when you register, allowing you to try any API or tool without payment
Per-Call Consumption	Each API call deducts a set number of credits based on the endpoint being used
Wizard and Tool Jobs	Credits are consumed on a per-record basis as wizards, database tools, and sample apps process your data
Unified Balance	A single credit pool is shared across every tool, wizard, API, and application on the platform
Account Dashboard	Current balance, historical usage, and credit top-ups are all managed from the account page

Your API license key is the gateway to everything Interzoid offers. Direct API calls, the Data Matching Wizard and other browser-based wizards, the database connectivity tools, and the sample applications all authenticate with the same key and draw from the same credit balance. One credential, one balance, one place to track usage, keeping the platform frictionless and easy to adopt.
