ICPay has introduced cloud API keys that allow developers to automate file uploads to the Internet Computer without requiring a wallet session or manual approval for each upload.
The new feature is designed for developers and teams managing recurring uploads, application deployments and scheduled file updates. API keys can be created for individual storage buckets and assigned write or delete permissions, with users able to revoke them at any time. ICPay said the secret key is displayed only once during creation.
The company said the feature enables assets to be deployed directly to on-chain storage through CI/CD workflows, while automated processes such as bots and scheduled jobs can update files without manual intervention. Files stored through the service can also be served through public CDN links.
According to ICPay, storage remains encrypted at rest and users can manage up to 10 API keys per bucket. The service continues to use ICP for payments.
API-based access is a common feature across cloud storage platforms, allowing applications and infrastructure tools to interact with storage services programmatically. ICPay’s approach brings that workflow to storage hosted on the Internet Computer, where files are stored on-chain rather than through conventional cloud infrastructure.
The feature is available through the ICPay dashboard, where users can generate and manage bucket-specific keys from the storage interface.
