Centaur separates API keys, MCP connected apps, and Telegram bot setup.

API keys

Use API keys for REST integrations and custom clients. API keys are managed from the Centaur app:
API keys authenticate REST requests with:
Default API keys are scoped to the read families enabled for the account. A key can be valid for one endpoint family and still return 403 for another if it lacks that scope.

Connected Apps

Connected Apps are MCP OAuth clients connected to your Centaur account. They are managed from:
Use Connected Apps to review which MCP clients have been authorized. Removing a connected app revokes that app’s access, but it does not delete REST API keys.

Telegram bot

Telegram bot setup is a product notification workflow. It is managed separately from REST and MCP credentials. Following a trader or asset can prompt Telegram bot setup when the bot is not connected, but bot setup does not grant API or MCP access.

Which credential should I use?

Use OAuth for MCP clients. Use API keys for REST integrations.
