Authentication

Orbyt uses standard Bearer token authentication. Authorization tokens are generated within the administrative dashboard and map directly to specific project environments.

Integration Methods

The gateway supports multiple integration patterns, standardizing authentication across every underlying provider.

OpenAI SDK

Initialize the client with your gateway URL and the Bearer token. The SDK handles the Authorization header automatically.

const openai = new OpenAI({
  baseURL: "https://your-gateway-url/v1",
  apiKey: "gateway-sk-xxxx",
});

Authorization Header

Pass the token directly in the request headers for custom integrations. Prefix the key with the Bearer scheme as shown below.

Authorization: Bearer gateway-sk-xxxx

Security Standards

• Revocation capabilities allow you to invalidate keys instantly from the dashboard.
• Scoped access limits tokens to specific projects or model families.
• Environment isolation ensures that development keys cannot access production resources.
