# Retell AI Security Basics
## Overview
Implementation patterns for Retell AI security basics — voice agent and telephony platform.
## Prerequisites
- Completed `retellai-install-auth` setup
## Instructions
### Step 1: SDK Pattern
```typescript
import Retell from 'retell-sdk';
const retell = new Retell({ apiKey: process.env.RETELL_API_KEY! });
const agents = await retell.agent.list();
console.log(`Agents: ${agents.length}`);
```
## Output
- Retell AI integration for security basics
## Error Handling
| Error | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| 401 Unauthorized | Invalid API key | Check RETELL_API_KEY |
| 429 Rate Limited | Too many requests | Implement backoff |
| 400 Bad Request | Invalid parameters | Check API documentation |
## Examples
### Rotate an exposed development credential safely
Disable the exposed development key in the provider console, create a scoped
replacement, and update only the development secret reference. Verify the new
key with a harmless agent-list request while ensuring command output does not
print its value. Review access logs and affected preview configurations, then
document the incident with the credential identifier and rotation time rather
than copying key material into the ticket or source repository.
