Hi Team, I want to use Airbyte in one of my projects. I was referring the API document ( https://airbyte-public-api-docs.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/rapidoc-api-docs.html#auth ). I have two questions for now. 1) From where I can get API key? 2) Does Airbyte provide Hosted services so that I do not have to deploy my own Aitbyte instance on my own server? Thank you & Best Regards

1. Right now you do not need an API key for the self hosted version. 2. Currently we support only self hosted deployments of Airbyte. We will be rolling out a hosted version very early next month though it will be focused on US users (for data tenancy reasons).

Thank you @charles .

Hi Team, I am trying to use the API with the self-hosted version (v0.40.22) and the API. @charles pointed out that the self hosted version would not need an API key. However, I am getting a 401. How can I disable HTTP authorization to use the API? I set the
BASIC_AUTH_USERNAME
and
BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD
to
""
. Thanks a lot in advance for your help!

Hi. In the .,env there should be those fields that you can set to ''
t
Hi Eli, I set them to "
Nevertheless, the API wants an API key

I am assuming you created a build for the change. did you try to provide it with '' as credentials?
t
hm, it works now. Seems like I did something wrong when setting the env vars. Thanks for your support, Eli!

great 🙂
