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.
