Security and Authentication

You authenticate to the Scribie API by providing an API key in the request. You can manage your API key from your account. Your API key carry many privileges, so be sure to keep them secret!

Authentication to the API occurs via HTTP Basic Auth. Provide your API key as the basic auth username. You do not need to provide a password.

All API requests must be made over HTTPS. Calls made over plain HTTP will fail. You must authenticate for all requests.

For eg:

curl -k -u a7f31ed17c91c1e541c6213ec73128ed15bccee9: https://scribie.com/api/v1/files

Here “a7f31ed17c91c1e541c6213ec73128ed15bccee9” is the api key
