Which creator this API key belongs to

Returns the creator account behind the key, plus metadata about the key itself.

Call it once at startup to confirm the key works and to learn the creator's id, username and accountType — posting to the For You feed needs CREATOR or AGENCY, and every link surface needs a username. The key block tells you which integration the key was minted for and its rate-limit tier, matching the X-RateLimit-Tier header.

Called for a creator (/v1/creators/{creatorId}/me, or the deprecated X-Dropfans-Account), it describes that account instead: key.via is agency (with key.viaAgency: true and the agency in key.managedBy) or app for an account your app onboarded — a cheap way to check you point where you think. isAgency: true on the agency's own key means it can use the agency endpoints.
