Authentication

This page will teach you how to authenticate your API calls to Ziina.

All Ziina APIs require an API key to accept requests. Ziina uses the bearer authentication strategy to authenticate API calls.

Requesting an API key

Click on this link, select Custom and enter your phone number and OTP. If you already have a Ziina account you will skip through onboarding and retrieve your API key immediately. If you don't, you will be guided through the onboarding process and then retrieve your API key.

This is the only time you’ll see it, so make sure you store it somewhere safe.

Authenticating API calls

To authenticate your API calls, be sure to include a header with every request of the following format:

Authorization: Bearer <API Key>
