About this method

Retrieve the remaining validity of a secured API key in seconds.

This method takes a secured API key as a parameter and returns the amount of seconds left until the API key’s validUntil field expires. If the key is no longer valid, the method returns a negative number indicating the amount of seconds passed since the key expired.

If the API key has no validUntil restriction, this method raises an exception or an error depending on your client.

Response

This section shows the JSON response returned by the API. Each API client encapsulates this response inside objects specific to the programming language, so that the actual response might be different. You can view the response by using the getLogs method. Don’t rely on the order of attributes in the response, as JSON doesn’t guarantee the ordering of keys in objects.
