Manage Your API Key¶

After logging into the Vietmap Map API Console, you can manage your API keys, monitor usage, and access various services.

1. Log in to the Console¶

Go to https://maps.vietmap.vn/console/ and enter your registered email and password.

2. Manage API Keys by Project¶

Go to the "Consumers" section in the left side menu to view and manage your projects.
Click Detail on each project to view and manage the API keys associated with that project.
You can add new API keys, delete existing ones, add whitelisted IPs, set domain restrictions, or limit usage per key or per IP, and restrict specific API features.
You can also restrict the IPs or domains that can use the API key to enhance security.
You can enable or disable specific APIs for each API key to control access to different services, or set quota limits per API as needed.
If your API key is used for public applications, consider setting up domain and IP restrictions to prevent unauthorized usage.

For tilemap API keys, we've added specific restrictions to control map tile access by IPs and disable certain features to optimize usage, ensuring efficient and secure access to map tiles. Remember to add referring domains to avoid unexpected usage charges.

3. Monitor Usage¶

Navigate to the "Daily Report" section to monitor your API usage statistics, including request counts per API, usage over time, etc.

Secure Your API Key¶

To protect your API key from unauthorized use, consider the following best practices:

If the API key is used in a web application or is publicly accessible, restrict usage to specific domains, add limitations per key or per IP, and restrict specific API features in the console.
Regularly review your API key usage in the console to detect any unusual activity.
If you suspect that your API key has been compromised, regenerate it immediately from the console and update your applications with the new key.
Never share your API key publicly or include it in client-side code without restrictions.
