New features

​
Unkey CLI

A new command-line interface gives you direct access to the full Unkey API from your terminal. Manage API keys, configure rate limits, set permissions, query analytics, and more — all without leaving the command line. Authenticate once with unkey auth login, and all subsequent commands use your stored credentials automatically. You can also pass a root key per-command or via the UNKEY_ROOT_KEY environment variable. 
# Authenticate
unkey auth login

# Create an API and issue a key
unkey api apis create-api --name=payment-service
unkey api keys create-key --api-id=api_1234 --name="Production Key"

# Verify a key
unkey api keys verify-key --key=sk_1234abcdef
Every command supports --output=json for scripting and piping to tools like jq. See the CLI documentation for the full command reference.
The CLI is early and provided on a best-effort basis. There are no breaking change guarantees for commands, flags, or output format. The underlying API is versioned and stable.

Updates

​
Improved keys overview table

The keys overview table in the dashboard now supports column sorting, keyboard navigation, and inline row selection. Click any row to open a details panel showing outcome distribution, roles, and permissions — without leaving the page. The table also loads faster with built-in skeleton states and a cleaner empty state.

​
Consistent settings pages

The settings UI for billing, project, rate limiting, and API configuration now shares a unified layout. Danger and warning zones are visually consistent across all settings pages.

​
Bug fixes

  • The onboarding flow no longer closes unexpectedly when navigating away. If you’ve already connected GitHub, the setup wizard skips the connection step and takes you directly to repository selection.
  • Fixed a missing workspace slug in the key details panel link within the API requests view.
