Authorizations

​
Authorization
string
header
required

Use your project-specific Secret API key. Will start with tr_dev_, tr_prod, tr_stg, etc.

You can find your Secret API key in the API Keys section of your Trigger.dev project dashboard.

Our TypeScript SDK will default to using the value of the TRIGGER_SECRET_KEY environment variable if it is set. If you are using the SDK in a different environment, you can set the key using the configure function.

import { configure } from "@trigger.dev/sdk";

configure({ accessToken: "tr_dev_1234" });
