Recipe: Authentication guide

/// Step 1: Get your API token

Navigate to PartnerHub > Developers > API Tokens and create a new organization token. Your API tokens carry privileges, so keep them secure!

Your token will look something like this: eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...

/// Step 2: Add token to request headers

Send the API token in the request header with the key requestToken. All API requests must be made over HTTPS.

$curl -X POST "https://api.payabli.com/api/ExampleEndpoint/authorize" \
>  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
>  -H "requestToken: YOUR_API_TOKEN"

/// Step 3: Add idempotency key (recommended)

Include a unique idempotencyKey header to prevent duplicate transactions. This key persists for 2 minutes.

$curl -X POST "https://api.payabli.com/api/ExampleEndpoint/authorize" \
>  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
>  -H "requestToken: YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
>  -H "idempotencyKey: unique-request-id-123"
