Authentication

The Verdata API uses API Key Bearer Token Authentication

To obtain your API key, log in to the Verdata application and navigate to the Settings page.

Important: Keep your API key. Do not expose them in publicly accessible locations such as client-side code, GitHub, or version control systems.

For clients to authenticate:

  • The API key should be included in the Authorization HTTP header. The API key should be prefixed by the string literal "Bearer", with whitespace separating the two strings. Ex. Authorization: Bearer vd_dmVyZG_F0YTpFellpcm5QdW5XbDlMeGNjejVVY

To test whether the API key is working, users should send a GET request to the /v1/users/me endpoint. A successful 200 response should return with accompanying key details.
