Authentication API
Our API supports two authentication methods: OAuth 2.0 and API keys.
OAuth 2.0
const response = await fetch('/oauth/token', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify({
grant_type: 'client_credentials',
client_id: 'your_client_id',
client_secret: 'your_client_secret'
})
});API Keys
Include your API key in the Authorization header:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" https://api.example.com/v1/usersGlossaryAI Detected
