Attention Passengers, we have an announcement. We have decided to keep shipping team features until every team in the world is using Railway. Thank you for your time.

Now departing on the Priority Boarding track — 

Will we miss the days of trying frantically to update a compromised API key across half a dozen services? Nope, not in the slightest. You can now store a secret in a variable, share it among your team, and reference it across any number of services.

If you have a Team on Railway, you now have access to the Public API Preview! To get access to it, go to your Team settings page and generate an API Token to start making requests.
