Hi, just wanted to check in again to clarify this a bit. TSIG keys are used for both the api and the direct dns update, this is what authenticates the request and tied to a specific domain. the bearer (long and short) are for the account and is tied to you rather than a specific domain. https://dynip.dev/docs#api-register - you can also list current keys etc for the different domains.

TSIG Keys: Used strictly for updating DNS records (/update). These are 44-character Base64 encoded strings generated per-zone.

JWT Bearer Tokens: Used for account management and programmatic zone registration (/register). Generated upon user login.

Hope this helps to clear it up, I might link the documentation from the pricing section so that at least there is clarification on it.
