  description: >-
    All TopK access (REST API, SDKs, CLI, and the MCP server) authenticates with a TopK API key
    presented as a Bearer token in the Authorization header, or supplied via the TOPK_API_KEY
    environment variable. API keys are generated in the TopK console (console.topk.io). Requests
    are region-scoped: the client is configured with both an API key and a region (e.g.
    aws-us-east-1-elastica) which selects the {region}.api.topk.io host.

  - REST API (collections, datasets, management)
  - Python SDK (topk-sdk)
  - JavaScript SDK (topk-js)
  - Rust SDK (topk-rs)
  - SQL / PostgreSQL wire protocol
  - CLI (topk login / TOPK_API_KEY)
  - MCP server
notes: No OAuth2 or OpenID Connect surface is documented; TopK uses opaque API-key bearer tokens. No public OpenAPI is published, so this profile is sourced from the SDK/CLI/MCP documentation rather than derived from a spec.
