Authorization header

Every call to Splio Marketing Automation API needs to authenticated. To do so the call needs to have Authorization header with a valid JWT token in it. The header should look like Authorization: Bearer XXX.YYY.ZZZ

This JWT token can only be provided by /authenticate endpoint, which requires an API Key./

🚧

Warning

• We recommend to use an API key per connection system (e-commerce, PoS...) to allow system identification in case of investigation.
• Do not authenticate for each API call you are making. The JWT Token is valid for 1 hour.
• Never communicate your API key (even to our Customer Care team), the last 3 characters will suffice if we know the name of the universe).
