Learn how to use your API Key for authentication and to use our servicesGet Your API Key #
You need to use an API Key to verify your identity when using Vocu's developer interfaces. You can access the API Platform from the side menu bar, and click the Create API Key button. In the pop-up window, give any name to this API Key (to facilitate recording its purpose). After confirmation, you will get a new API Key.Each account can have a maximum of 5 different API Keys simultaneously. Once the limit is reached, you can create a new one by deleting any existing API Key. Deleted API Keys will become completely invalid and can no longer be used to access any Vocu API services.
For security reasons, each API Key will only be displayed in plaintext in the pop-up window upon initial creation. Please keep it safe; you will not be able to retrieve it after closing the pop-up window.
Access Authentication#
After obtaining the API Key, you can easily complete authentication by including the following entry in the Header of any API request.Authorization: Bearer <Your API Key>
Authorization: Bearer sk-2cdeh2375692vq5hp9fp32f58p967tca
