Authentication

Learn how to authenticate your API requests using token-based authentication

All requests to the lobstr.io API must include an Authorization header with your API token. You can obtain your API token from the API menu in your dashboard.

The authentication format follows the standard Token authentication scheme:

text

Authorization: Token YOUR_API_KEY

Once authenticated, you'll have access to all API endpoints based on your account's permission level and subscription plan.

Headers

Key	Value	Required
Authorization	Token YOUR_API_KEY	Yes

Pro Tip

Store your API key in environment variables rather than hardcoding it in your source code. This prevents accidental exposure in version control systems.

Warning

Never share your API key publicly or commit it to public repositories. Treat it like a password.

Note

If you believe your API key has been compromised, regenerate it immediately from your dashboard. The old key will be invalidated.
