**GET** `https://www.digicert.com/services/v2/account/auth-key`

Use this endpoint to get details about your account's AuthKey.


> **Info**
>
> AuthKey details are returned only if a single AuthKey is associated with the account. If multiple AuthKeys exist, a `400 Bad Request` error is returned.


Additionally, if multiple AuthKeys are associated with your account, get the details of a specific AuthKey using its unique ID. Get the details for active, inactive, or expired AuthKeys. To get the details of a specific AuthKey, use the following method and URL:

`GET https://www.digicert.com/services/v2/account/auth-key/{auth_key_id}`
