​
Overview

Validate whether a proxy key can access a specific model from the current IP address. This endpoint is useful for pre-flight checks before making API requests, especially in applications that need to handle access restrictions gracefully.
Proxy Key Only: This endpoint only works with proxy keys (starting with ek-proxy-). Regular API keys will receive a 400 error.

​
