PATCH/api/v1/api-keys/{keyId}

Update an API key's per-key limits

Updates the per-key rate/throughput limits and model allow-list. Only the fields present in the body are changed; sending an explicit `null` CLEARS that limit, omitting the field leaves it untouched, and an empty `modelAllowlist` normalizes to null (no restriction). Sending none of the four returns 400 NO_FIELDS. Ceilings: tpmLimit/rpmLimit <= 10,000,000, maxParallel <= 10,000, modelAllowlist <= 100 entries. Enforced server-side by the gateway: `tpmLimit` and `rpmLimit` produce 429, `modelAllowlist` produces 403, `maxParallel` is read by the concurrency limiter. Requires the 'admin' role on the org that owns the key — the org is resolved from the key row, so one org cannot mutate another org's key. Responses are `Cache-Control: no-store`.

Response

All status codes

200Updated key limits: id, name, key_prefix, tokens_per_minute, rpm_limit, max_parallel, model_allowlist.
400`INVALID_ID` — keyId is not a UUID; or `NO_FIELDS` — none of tpmLimit / rpmLimit / maxParallel / modelAllowlist was supplied.
401(no description)
403Forbidden — the credential is valid but lacks the API-key scope, member role, or plan entitlement this operation requires.
404`NOT_FOUND` — no such key in an org the caller may edit.
409Conflict — CONFLICT.
429(no description)
500Internal Server Error — DB_ERROR.
