Create a credential
/credentialsIssues a new API credential for the current account and, optionally, its initial access policies.
Each entry in policies specifies either a list of capabilities or a policy template, together with the resources it applies to. Available templates are returned by the list policy templates operation.
The credential secret is returned only in this response and cannot be retrieved again. Store it securely.
The new credential cannot receive permissions beyond those the calling credential is allowed to delegate. Such requests are rejected with delegation_limit_exceeded and no credential is issued.
Autonomous mode: the API credential secret, sent as a bearer token. Credential secrets are identified by a fixed prefix.

Returns all credentials of the current account, including the calling credential. Requires the `credentials.read` permission; resource-level restrictions do not apply to this collection. Results are paginated with a cursor and can be filtered by `status` and sorted by creation date.
Retrieve the current credential GET
Returns the credential used to authenticate the request, reflecting its current state. Available to any authenticated credential without additional permissions.
