Learn how to use your API key to authenticate requests to KicksDB.
After signing up for an account, you’ll receive an API key via email. This key is used to authenticate all requests to KicksDB.
An API key is a string that looks like this: sd_d58133e7ac15372f35f4108fc39802c4

To authenticate a request, include your API key in the Authorization
header.
Do not include any prefixes like Bearer
or Basic
in your API key.
Every response from the API includes the following headers for your reference:
X-Key-Type
: Indicates the type of API key used.X-Quota-Current
: Shows the number of requests you’ve made during the current month.
