API Authentication

Authenticate your requests to the Keymint API effortlessly using Access Tokens.

Access Tokens

Access Tokens are unique strings required for authentication. Include them as a Bearer token in the Authorization header of every API request.

Obtaining an Access Token

Follow these steps to generate an Access Token:

1. Log in to your Keymint Dashboard.
2. Navigate to Developer.
3. Generate a token and setting its scopes.

Using the Access Token

Include the token in the Authorization header of your API requests. Here’s an example:

Example: Request with Authorization Header

GET /activate-key HTTP/1.1
Host: api.keymint.dev
Authorization: Bearer at_your_token_here

Scopes

Scopes help restrict token permissions for better security and organization:

• Product Scopes: Limit tokens to specific products.

Security Best Practices

To ensure the security of your Access Tokens:

• Keep tokens secret and store them securely.
• Use HTTPS for all API requests.
• Generate tokens with the minimal required scopes.
• Revoke compromised tokens immediately.

Token Management

Manage your tokens directly in the Keymint Dashboard:

• Generate new tokens as needed.
• Revoke existing tokens to maintain security.
