Recital API uses API keys to authenticate requests. All requests must be made over HTTPS and authenticated over standard Bearer authentication.

Create API Key

API keys can be created, viewed and managed in the Recital dashboard on the Settings > API keys screen.

All API requests are authenticated with an API key with the following request header format:

curl --location --request GET '<base_url>/api/v1/wallet' \
--header 'Bearer api-key;'

🚧 Caution

An invalid, missing or expired api key will result in HTTP 401 Unauthorized responses.

They should not be in your client-side code or checked into your application’s code or commit your API keys to git.
