# Instant API Key Revocation
URL: /docs/changelogs/2026-05-01
LLM index: /llms.txt
Description: Revoking or rotating an API key now takes effect immediately, instead of a short window where the old key could still work.

## Added

- Revoking or rotating an API key now invalidates it right away, instead of the key possibly continuing to work for a short window until an internal cache entry expired. Manage your keys from the [developer dashboard](https://carsxe.com/dashboard/developer).

## Notes

- No action needed — this is a background reliability improvement to how key changes propagate.
