Authentication

Authentication to the API occurs via HTTP Basic Auth. Pass the credentials as a Base64-encoded header or as parameters in an HTTP client.

The credentials must be Base64-encoded. The following is an example of an encoded HTTP Basic Authentication header:

Authorization: Basic dGVzdF9yNnIxNGl6c3JlYms2c255b3kxajZoYnpqejF4Ym8w
Raw String format:
base64("username:password")
  • username: API key
  • password: API secret

 

The credentials are defined per website. To get your credentials:

  • Log in to your Merchant portal.
  • Go to Developer settings > Website settings > API Keys.
  • Select the website for your integration.
  • Copy API key value, reset and copy API secret value for sandbox and live mode (if available).
