Create a new key to access Distill's extraction engines programmatically.

How to Use Your Keys

Your API keys grant direct programmatic access to Distill's powerful extraction engine. This lets you bypass the visual dashboard and integrate the automated paper summarization right into your own apps, scripts, or lab workflows.

1. The Endpoint

Submit scholarly article PMIDs or raw PDF text strings to the endpoint via a POST payload.

POST https://distill-ai-one.vercel.app/api/summarize
2. Authentication

Pass your generated API key into the HTTP headers using the standard Bearer Token specification. Never expose this key in public frontend client code (like a basic React app); keep it safely tucked away on your backend Node or Python servers!

Authorization: Bearer distill_xxx...
3. Security Warning

Treat your API key strictly like a password. Do not embed it in public GitHub repositories or send it to people unencrypted. If your key leaks or gets compromised, click the Revoke (X) button above immediately to destroy it.
