Essential steps before doing anything else:

  1. Create an account
  2. Create a new Project (this could be the name of your API)
  3. Generate a new ‘Access Key’ (sometimes referred to as a root key)
  4. Copy your ‘Access Key’ and Project ID somewhere safe!

​
Authentication

All API endpoints are authenticated using your ‘Access token’.

curl --request GET \
 --url https://api.theauthapi.com/ \
 --header 'x-api-key: REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'
