keys.revoke

Revoke an API key

POST/keys/{id}/revoke

Operation
keys.revoke
MCP tool
not exposed over MCP

Kill a key. It stops working everywhere within a second. Revoking an already-revoked key succeeds: making sure a credential is dead must always be possible.

curl -X POST "https://api.gogoscreen.com/api/v1/keys/<id>/revoke" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOGOSCREEN_API_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)"
The shape of a request to this operation. The dashboard sends it with the signed in person's session; an API key is refused.

At a glance

FactDetail
Scopeskeys:manage
Credentialsa signed in dashboard session. An API key cannot be granted these scopes, so this operation is reachable only from a signed in dashboard session.
Rate limit120 requests a minute per credential, in the write class.
IdempotencyRequired. Send an Idempotency-Key header; a retry with the same key and the same body returns the stored answer with Idempotent-Replayed: true. How idempotency works.

AuditEvery call is written to the audit log as api_key_management.

Errors

Every refusal is { error: { code, message, details?, requestId } }. Branch on code, never on the sentence. The full catalogue is at Errors.

CodeStatusWhen it happensWhat to do
idempotency_key_required400A mutating operation arrived over HTTP with no Idempotency-Key header. It is refused before the body is parsed, so a caller missing both learns about both at once.Add an Idempotency-Key header of up to 128 characters, unique to this request. Over MCP the same value goes in the idempotencyKey tool argument.
validation_failed400The merged path, query and body did not match the operation's schema. The schemas are strict, so an unknown field is a failure rather than something ignored, and a string carrying half of a character is refused before it can be stored.Read details.issues. Each entry carries a path, a message and a machine readable code. Fix every named field and send the request again; the same body always fails the same way.
unauthorized401No credential was presented, or the key is unknown, revoked or expired, or an X-API-Key header carried something that is not an API key. details.reason says which.Send Authorization: Bearer gsk_live_…. A revoked or expired key never starts working again, so issue a new one in the developer console. Put a dashboard session token in Authorization, never in X-API-Key.
forbidden_scope403The credential does not carry every scope the operation declares, or it is the wrong kind of credential for it. keys.* and assistant.* are user only and can never be called by a key.details.requiredScopes and details.missingScopes name what is missing. A key's scopes cannot be changed after it is issued, so create a new key with them. When details.allowedActors is present, no key can call this operation at all.
not_found404No resource of that id belongs to this account. A resource that belongs to somebody else answers 404 as well, never 403.Check the id. Do not treat this as a permissions problem.
conflict409The request conflicts with the state the resource is in, and no more specific code applies.Re-read the resource and decide from its current state. Retrying the same request unchanged will not help.
idempotency_conflict409That idempotency key has already been used on this operation with a different request body.Use a fresh key for a different request. A key stands for one intent, not for one attempt.
idempotency_in_progress409The first request under that key is still being worked. Two concurrent identical requests both reach the store and one of them is told this.Wait the Retry-After seconds, which is 2, and send exactly the same request again with the same key. Do not change the body and do not mint a new key.
rate_limited429The credential's per minute budget, the account's per minute ceiling, or a daily cap was exceeded. details.scope is minute, day or account, or global when the product's own daily cap on voice previews is spent.Wait the Retry-After seconds and retry. details.limit and details.resetAt say what was hit and when it reopens. The RateLimit-* headers on every answer let a client pace itself before it gets here.
internal_error500An unhandled failure inside this API. The original message is logged and never answered.Retry once, then quote requestId to support. A 5xx deletes the idempotency claim rather than storing it, so retrying under the same key is safe.
