Authenticating with the v3 API

To authenticate with the v3 API, you need to create a v3 API type application by connecting to our developer app and generate access keys.

v3 API authentication can be done using basic auth or via a bearer token.

Basic auth

To authenticate your requests, you must add an Authorization header whose value will be Basic xxxx where xxxx is a base 64 encoding of a string composed of:

• Your access key.
• The : character.
• Your secret key.

Example in PHP:

$credentials = base64_encode($access_key.':'.$secret_key);

Bearer token

To authenticate your requests, you need to add an Authorization header whose value will be Bearer xxxx where xxxx is an access token retrieved via the authentication endpoint.
