Generate Password API

Generate cryptographically secure random passwords via REST API. Configure length (8–128 chars), character sets (uppercase, lowercase, digits, symbols), and minimum requirements. The API reports entropy bits so you know exactly how strong the generated password is.

How it works

POST your password requirements: length, whether to include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and/or symbols. The API uses Node.js crypto.randomBytes() to select characters — not Math.random(). Returns the password and its entropy in bits.

Use cases

• Generate initial passwords for new user accounts in a registration flow
• Create API keys and access tokens for developer credentials
• Generate temporary passwords for password-reset flows
• Produce test passwords with known complexity for security testing

Examples

Three real-world scenarios showing how developers use Generate Password in production.

curl -X POST https://slopshop.gg/v1/crypto-password-generate \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SLOPSHOP_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"length": 16, "uppercase": true, "lowercase": true, "numbers": true, "symbols": false}'

curl -X POST https://slopshop.gg/v1/crypto-password-generate \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SLOPSHOP_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"length": 32, "uppercase": true, "lowercase": true, "numbers": true, "symbols": true}'

curl -X POST https://slopshop.gg/v1/crypto-password-generate \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SLOPSHOP_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"length": 6, "uppercase": false, "lowercase": false, "numbers": true, "symbols": false}'

Python

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://slopshop.gg/v1/crypto-password-generate",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"},
    json={"input": "your data here"}
)
result = response.json()
print(result["data"])

Node.js

const response = await fetch("https://slopshop.gg/v1/crypto-password-generate", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({ input: "your data here" })
});
const { data } = await response.json();
console.log(data);

CLI

# Install the Slopshop CLI
npm install -g slopshop

# Set your API key
export SLOPSHOP_KEY=your_api_key

# Call crypto-password-generate
slop crypto-password-generate '{"input": "your data here"}'
