Overview

You can view and manage your API key in the Inflow Dashboard. You can request access to the Inflow Dashboard by contacting our support team.

🚧
Your API key carries many privileges, so be sure to keep it secure!
Do not share your secret API keys in publicly accessible areas such as GitHub, client-side code, and so forth.

API Keys

Inflow authenticates your API requests using your account’s API key. Use your API key by setting it in the X-Inflow-Api-Key header of each request to the Inflow API.

All API requests must be made over HTTPS. Calls made over plain HTTP will fail. API requests without authentication will also fail. Ivy raises an authentication error 401 if the key is incorrect or outdated.

You can use the Inflow Dashboard to roll the API key.

Sandbox and Production modes

All Inflow API requests occur in either sandbox or production mode. The Sandbox API is on demand.

Type	Base URL	When to Use	How to Use
