What's this?

key() public

Returns the key pointing to the file on the service that’s associated with this blob. The key is in the standard secure-token format from Rails. So it’ll look like: XTAPjJCJiuDrLk3TmwyJGpUo. This key is not intended to be revealed directly to the user. Always refer to blobs using the signed_id or a verified form of the key.
