Authorization

To interact with our API, users must authenticate their requests using a User Access Token. Follow the steps below to obtain and use a token for authorization

PreviousAPI (V2)NextAPI reference

Last updated 3 months ago

Step 1: Generate a User Access Token

  1. Navigate to the in the Management Dashboard.

  2. Click on Create user access token.

  1. The generated token will include:

  • API Key: Your unique identifier.

  • API Secret: Your secret key for secure access.

Step 2: Use the Authorization Header

When making requests to the API, you must include the authorization header in the following format:

Authorization: Bearer <API_KEY>:<API_SECRET>

Example Request

GET /api/v1/resource
Authorization: Bearer abcd1234:efgh5678

Important Notes

  • Keep your API Secret confidential and do not share it.

  • The token grants access to your account and data, so store it securely.

  • If your token is compromised, revoke it immediately from the User Access Token page and generate a new one.
