Stripe Ephemeral Keys API is one of 159 APIs that [Stripe](https://apis.io/providers/stripe/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Ephemeral and Keys. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and an OpenAPI specification.

Stripe.js uses ephemeral keys to securely retrieve Card information from the Stripe API without publicly exposing your secret keys. You need to do some of the ephemeral key exchange on the server-side to set this up.
