# Fetch a development API key
|
|
|
|
For easy testing of mobile apps and other clients and against Zulip
|
|
development servers, we support fetching a Zulip API key for any user
|
|
on the development server without authentication (so that they can
|
|
implement analogues of the one-click login process available for Zulip
|
|
development servers on the web).
|
|
|
|
**Note:** This endpoint is only available on Zulip development
|
|
servers; for obvious security reasons it will always return an error
|
|
in a Zulip production server.
|
|
|
|
`POST {{ api_url }}/v1/dev_fetch_api_key`
|
|
|
|
