Beyond scraping, the client exposes two account namespaces: client.apiKeys for managing your keys and client.billing for credits. Both authenticate with the API key you constructed the client with.

client.apiKeys

Mint, list, and revoke API keys programmatically — handy for provisioning a key per environment or per customer.
// Create a key — the raw secret is returned exactly once. Store it now.
const created = await client.apiKeys.create({ name: 'production' });
if (created.type === 'success') {
  console.log(created.data.rawKey);
}

// List active keys, newest first.
const keys = await client.apiKeys.list();

// Revoke a key by id.
await client.apiKeys.revoke({ id: 'key_123' });
MethodDescription
create({ name? })Mint a new key. Returns the raw secret once — it can never be retrieved again.
list()List the account’s active keys, newest first.
revoke({ id })Revoke a key by id. Succeeds with no body.
create returns the key’s secret a single time. Store it the moment you receive it — Bridgly keeps only a hash and can never show it again.

client.billing

Read your balance and top up credits.
// Current balance and billing settings.
const info = await client.billing.getInfo();
if (info.type === 'success') {
  console.log(info.data.credits);
}

// Start a credit purchase — returns a Stripe Checkout URL to open.
const checkout = await client.billing.buyCredits({ amountUsd: 20 });
if (checkout.type === 'success') {
  console.log(checkout.data); // redirect the browser here
}

// Configure auto top-up.
await client.billing.updateAutoTopUp({
  enabled: true,
  thresholdCredits: 500,
  amountUsd: 20,
});
MethodDescription
getInfo()The account’s live credit balance and auto-top-up settings.
buyCredits({ amountUsd })Start a purchase. Returns a Stripe Checkout URL to redirect to.
updateAutoTopUp({ enabled, thresholdCredits, amountUsd })Update auto-top-up settings. Returns the refreshed billing snapshot.

Result shape

Account methods return a slightly simpler result than scraping methods — a data payload on success, or a status and message on error, with no credit envelope:
type AccountResult<T> =
  | { type: 'success'; data: T }
  | { type: 'error'; status: number; message: string };
revoke returns a VoidResult — success carries no body:
type VoidResult =
  { type: 'success' } | { type: 'error'; status: number; message: string };
