Authentication

Authentication - Abyssale REST API

Abyssale uses API Key Authentication: Your API key is passed along with every API call, allowing Abyssale to identify your company account and access your data.

How to get an API Key?

Access to the API key requires at least an Admin role.

1. Go to app.abyssale.com & log in

2. Click Workspace settings on the left menu

3. Click API Key on the left menu

4. Click the green Create new API key button.

5. Once done, your API key will be available (with a small delay of 30seconds) & you can copy it (by clicking on the copy icon button on the right part).

All of your Abyssale requests must contain a x-api-key header with your API Key

How to test your authentication?

Just call the GET /ready route with the header mentioned below, as follows:

cURL

curl -i -H "x-api-key: {YOUR-API-KEY}" https://api.abyssale.com/ready # HTTP/2 200

Javascript

Python

If the status code received is a 200, everything is OK.
