Authentication

All API endpoints require authentication using the Authorization header with your API key.

Header Format

Authorization: YOUR_API_KEY

Request Methods

const plateId = "[id]";
const apiKey = "your-api-key";
const baseUrl = "[base-url]";

const response = await fetch(`${baseUrl}/$[id]/keys/mykey`, {
  headers: {
    "Authorization": apiKey,
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
  }
});

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

Error Responses

Missing or invalid authorization returns 401 Unauthorized:

{
  "error": "missing_authorization",
  "message": "authorization header is required"
}

{
  "error": "invalid_authorization",
  "message": "authorization denied"
}

Security Notes

• Keep your API keys secure and never expose them in client-side code
• Rotate keys periodically
• Use HTTPS in production environments
• Implement key validation at the application level
• Store keys in environment variables or secure secret management systems
