How can I make hf space be private (I don’t want to expose my files) but at the same time not require any access token/authorization when i am making api calls?

Because of security policies, you can’t have a private Space accessible via API without authentication on Hugging Face. This ensures that only authorized users can access protected content and features.
Here’s a tip: Keep your Space public and handle sensitive data externally or through environment variables (private). This way, you can offer API access without authentication while keeping your private information safe.

Alternatively, you could scrape the data using a browser component. This is a very difficult method. Whether you use the method above or this method, it is a method that is quite close to hacking.
Is there a production HF spaces alternative?
