Connect APIs
Authentication
To interact with the Onboard Connect API, clients must authenticate using either an x-auth-token
or, in some cases, an API key.
Authentication steps
- Obtain credentials: Retrieve your API key from the Business Dashboard after completing the onboarding process. See the Getting started guide for instructions.
- Include authentication details: Depending on the endpoint, add either of the following to your API requests:
x-auth-token
: Required in the request header for authentication.- API key: Some endpoints require the public API key to be included as a query parameter to identify your integration.
Unauthorized Requests: Endpoints that require authentication will return a 401 Unauthorized status code for missing or invalid credentials.
