Protecting your API credentials is crucial. Never hardcode API keys directly into your code. Use environment variables or a secrets management system. Rotate API keys regularly. Restrict API key permissions to the minimum necessary level (e.g., only allow DNS record modifications). Consider using API Tokens for enhanced security and shorter expiration times.
