KeyAuth Bot needs to be linked to a KeyAuth application, and for most functionality a KeyAuth seller account, before it’s usable. Setting up and wiring those credentials is covered in the bot’s own deployment documentation — this page covers the credential concepts that matter once the bot is running and connected.

KeyAuth dashboard credentials

These are two different credentials with very different blast radii. Don’t confuse them.
The seller key cannot be scoped by KeyAuth. Every seller API call sends it as a URL query parameter — there’s no POST form — so IP-whitelisting your server in Seller Settings is the main real control available, and it costs nothing to set up. Also confirm HWID checking is enabled on the application. With it off, KeyAuth runs no HWID logic and a reset changes nothing — check any time with /licops status.

What requires the seller key

Without a seller key configured, the bot still starts, but account commands, key-management commands, and HWID-reset commands are disabled — along with everything under License Operations. See that page for what each capability needs.
