FAQPage Schema
How do I access external APIs in code_execution without exposing API keys?▼

External API access is proxied through Replit-managed passthrough billing, enabling seamless proxy requests without exposing API keys in code. You call externalApi__<connector_name> directly within code_execution to handle the results.

How do I perform a web image search using the Brave API on Replit?▼

Web image search via the Brave API is performed by calling externalApi__brave from code_execution with a GET request. The passthrough layer manages authorization, returning real web image results for use cases like reports or prompts.

Do I need to manually configure API keys to use the Brave API passthrough?▼

No manual API keys are required to use the Brave API passthrough. Authorization is managed entirely by the Replit-managed passthrough billing layer, allowing you to execute requests directly without exposing credentials.

What's the best way to integrate live image search results into Replit apps?▼

The best way to integrate live image search results is by using a passthrough proxy to the Brave API. This method provides real web image assets for media applications while handling authorization automatically through Replit's managed billing.

Why does my external API request fail when I include my own Brave API keys?▼

External API requests fail with manual keys because authorization is managed by the passthrough layer. You must call externalApi__brave without manual keys to let Replit's billing proxy handle the authentication and routing correctly.

Can I use the passthrough proxy for external API requests other than Brave image search?▼

Yes, the passthrough proxy supports external API requests by calling externalApi__<connector_name>. While the current configuration enables Brave API web image search, the proxy architecture allows routing to other connectors.
