Deprecating Service Tokens and API Keys in Favor of Identities
Apr 21st, 2024Product
-
Infisical is transitioning from Service Token and API Key authentication methods to identities for improved security and usability.
-
Identities in Infisical are entity representations for workloads or applications with enhanced security controls and permissions.
-
Users need to switch clients to use identities by July 22nd, 2024, as Service Token and API Key authentication methods will be deprecated after that date.
-
Identities offer role-based permission system, IP allowlist capabilities, and short-lived access token properties for improved security measures.
-
All client documentation, including CLI, Kubernetes Operator, etc., has been updated to utilize identities instead of Service Tokens and API Keys.
