Usage in Production

​

Overview

When deploying to production, it’s important not to expose your API key publicly. Instead, you should:

1. Exchange your API key for a short-lived session token on the server side
2. Pass this token to the client
3. Initialize the Anam SDK with the session token

​

Getting a Session Token

From your server, make a request to get a session token:

const response = await fetch('https://api.anam.ai/v1/auth/session-token', {
  method: 'GET',
  headers: {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    Authorization: `Bearer ${apiKey}`,
  },
});
const data = await response.json();
const sessionToken = data.sessionToken;

​

Client Initialization

Once you have a session token, use the createClient method to initialize the Anam client:

import { createClient } from '@anam-ai/js-sdk';

const anamClient = createClient('your-session-token', {
  personaId: 'chosen-persona-id',
});
