This new enhancement gives every user the ability to create and manage their own API keys. Prior to this update, this functionality was exclusive to our Business Tier customers, but we understand the need for this extended control over API keys across all users.
Each Courier tenant has two distinct notification development environments: Live and Test. Both of these environments are self-contained, meaning all assets like templates, brands, tags, categories, integrations, API keys, log data, etc., are unique to their respective environments. Now, any user can generate more than two API keys per environment, irrespective of their subscription plan. This adds flexibility and supports diverse development workflows.
API keys within each environment are prefaced in a particular way, which makes identification straightforward:
pk_prod_
corresponds to the API key for your published data in the Production environmentdk_prod_
corresponds to the API key for your draft data in the Production environmentpk_test_
corresponds to the API key for your published data in the Test environmentdk_test_
corresponds to the API key for your draft data in the Test environmentIn addition to this, Business Tier customers can also define the routing behavior of their API keys. For example, a mock key can simulate the Courier notification/message lifecycle without invoking the downstream provider. This allows users to test the flow of requests within Courier without incurring any send cost.
Overall, this enhancement empowers users with a greater degree of control and security over their API keys, hence facilitating more efficient and organized management of different integration workflows.

In our continuous effort to give users more control over their notification delivery, we've added support for dynamic throttling keys. Previously, users could only throttle keys that Courier defined. Now, you can choose the property on the payload you want to throttle by: for instance, account ID, region, etc.
This addition enables you to fine-tune your throttling based on specific attributes, providing a more customized and efficient delivery process. You can find more about this in our documentation.
