I want to edit and update Plans and Addons, which API key should I use?

Problem Statement

This article explains which API key to use when editing or updating Plans and Addons in Chargebee.

Solution

To edit and update Plans and Addons, you must use the Full Access API key.

Other API keys

• Publishable key: Create new subscriptions, full access to Estimate calls, read-only access to plans and addons.
• Read-only key: Read-only access to transactional data, plans and addons, or both.

For more details, see Types of API keys.

Important Notes

• Only admins and above can create or delete API keys.
• Deleting an API key removes it permanently; the same key cannot be recreated.
• At least one Full Access key must exist on a site; you cannot delete all of them.
• It is recommended to periodically replace the existing API keys with new ones for security.
