In CS-Cart, the API key is available only to the root administrator — an account with full access to all store data. When an external application, mobile app, ERP, or partner needs access to your data, the only option is to provide this key. In practice, you are handing over the keys to the entire store for a job that usually only requires reading.
The plugin solves exactly that. From its settings, you select with one click which administrators will gain the API key capability. Each key automatically inherits the permissions of the user group to which the administrator belongs — if the group allows only reading products and orders, the key only reads products and orders. The check is performed by the server on each request: any attempt to write, modify, or delete is rejected with a 403 error, even if sent directly to the API.
We have seen in practice what a full-access key means in the wrong hands or in mobile application code that can be decompiled. With the add-on, the key that is released outside your store has exactly the permissions you gave it — nothing more.
No core files are modified. The plugin is uninstalled cleanly and the store returns to CS-Cart behavior.
