Where the key appears
- On the order confirmation page after the payment reaches
paid_confirmed. - In the delivery email.
- Inside the personal dashboard after the customer logs in.
How customers can log in
All login paths land on the same personal dashboard data.
| Login method | When to use it |
|---|---|
| API key login | Best for direct ownership of one delivered key and quick access to balance, usage, and top-ups. |
| Google or GitHub | Best for users who prefer account-based sign-in and want to keep returning without pasting the key. |
| Email link | Best when the user wants sign-in without OAuth and without keeping the key open on screen. |
What the personal dashboard shows
- Current balance on the selected key
- Total spent amount
- Request count
- Recent requests
- Model breakdown
- The active base URL and key record
How top-ups behave
Top-ups do not create a second key for the same customer flow. They credit the same key again so the dashboard stays coherent.
Same-key top-ups
The same key keeps its identity, usage history, and dashboard line. The balance simply increases again after the top-up confirms.
What to do if something looks missing
- If the key works in the API but the dashboard looks empty, log in with the delivered key first.
- If the key is not in the email yet, check the on-site confirmation page and the order status first.
- If balance looks too low, read Billing, Balance & Cache before assuming there is a dashboard bug.
