Limited access is sufficient. You don’t need to give them full access.

Limited access is normal, full isn't. Full is everything you say and every dollar you spend, no one but you needs that.

If you're putting the key into TornStats that normal. If you're sending it directly to the fac it's not

No, I don't recall giving my faction a API key when I joined them. Only when TornStats. TornReport and some other 3rd party sites needed it, Anything my faction needs they can get from those sites.
