Get an API key and understand the prepaid credit model
Mint a reseller API key (rslr_...) from the Reseller API page in the Victus panel, store it safely, and top up the prepaid credit balance the API spends.
Reseller API access is enabled per account. Once it is active, you generate keys yourself from the Reseller API page in the control panel — no ticket required for each key.
Mint a key
- Log in to the control panel at control.victuscloud.com.
- Open the Reseller API page from your account area.
- Click to create a new key, give it a descriptive label (e.g. "production-store" or "staging"), and optionally restrict its scopes.
- Copy the key immediately — it starts with
rslr_and is shown in full only once. - Store it as a secret (environment variable / secrets manager), never in client-side code or a public repo.
A leaked rslr_ key can provision services and spend your credit balance. If a key is exposed, revoke it on the Reseller API page and mint a new one. Use a separate key per environment so you can rotate one without downtime.
Top up prepaid credits
The API spends the same credit balance as your main Victus account. Add credits in the billing portal before you start provisioning.
- Go to the billing portal at billing.victuscloud.com.
- Add credits using any supported method: UPI (India), PayPal, Crypto (LTC), or EasyPaisa (Pakistan).
- Verify the new balance with
GET /accountor in the billing dashboard.
New accounts get 3 free credits, which is enough to test a cheap provision end-to-end before you commit real budget.
