Automatic reminders for expiring API keys
Administrators want to receive automatic reminders before API keys expire, so they can renew them in time and prevent integrations from unexpectedly stopping. This would reduce manual monitoring effort and help avoid disruptions in connected systems. Problem / Pain For security reasons, API keys for integrations should be regularly exchanged. This means administration effort is required to keep track of which API keys should be renewed. If an API key expires unnoticed, the related integration may suddenly stop working. Impact / Benefit Automatic reminders before API keys expire would reduce administrative overhead and help mitigate the negative impact of expired API keys. An optional automatic reminder, for example by email to the API user’s email address, would help tremendously. Example use case An API is used to display certain content on an external website. A reminder before the API key expires could help prevent the key from becoming invalid and the content from disappearing from the website.
