API authentication

Server API requests carry a credential in the Authorization header. Keep the credential on your server, load it from a secret store or an environment variable, and never put it in client-side code, a URL or a log line.

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Credentials and the APIs that accept them

Keys and base URLs

Create and manage server API keys in the Backoffice under Integrations & API. The secret is shown once when a key is created or rotated, so store it immediately. Send each request to the base URL of the API you call:

Credentials

ApiKeyAuth

Format: Authorization: Bearer sk_<random>.

Server-to-server tenant API key. Header: Authorization: Bearer sk_.... Scopes are self-mintable per tenant; the scope required by each operation is listed in that operation’s security block. Recognized KYC/KYB/KYM scopes: write:identity (verify, batch, reverify, evidence, sessions, erasure and activate — all share this one scope, there is no separate read:identity), write:kym (KYM transactions).

Used by: Identity verification API, Risk scoring and agent trust API, Protected actions API, Device intelligence API, Mobile and device identity API, Observability query API.

SessionTokenAuth

Format: Authorization: Bearer kycs.<tenant>.<secret>.

Opaque hosted-session bearer token, minted once by the matching POST .../sessions S2S call and never re-issued. The tenant id rides inside the token itself. Additionally origin-enforced against the tenant’s ALLOWED_ORIGINS allowlist — a missing or disallowed Origin header refuses with 403 origin_not_allowed even given a valid token.

Used by: Identity verification API.

ApmIngestKeyAuth

Format: Authorization: Bearer sk_apm_<random>.

Dedicated ingestion key (sk_apm_..., matching ^sk_apm_[A-Za-z0-9_-]{24,256}$), created per project and environment under Integrations & API → Ingestion API keys. It carries an allowlist of signals chosen at creation and is the ONLY credential the ingestion operations accept: a server API key (sk_...), however broad its scopes, is rejected there, and an sk_apm_ key is rejected on every other route.

Used by: Telemetry ingestion API.

CodingAgentKeyAuth

Format: Authorization: Bearer cak_<random>.

Coding-agent read key (Authorization: Bearer cak_..., matching ^cak_[A-Za-z0-9_-]{24,256}$), created under Integrations & API → Coding agent keys with a chosen set of scopes. It is accepted only by the coding-agent read operations, on the ingestion hosts; a server API key (sk_...) or an ingestion key (sk_apm_...) is rejected there.

Used by: Observability query API.

McpTokenAuth

Format: Authorization: Bearer mcp_<random>.

MCP token (Authorization: Bearer mcp_...) created under Integrations & API, MCP tokens. A static opaque bearer token, not OAuth. It is accepted only by this endpoint.

Used by: MCP server.

tenantKey

Format: Authorization: Bearer sk_prod_<32 hex>.

The platform’s tenant API key (minted in the Backoffice; scopes read:pulse, write:pulse), for the tenant’s own back-end on /pulse/v1/tenant/* only. Looked up through an HMAC hash; a device token or a web session is refused.

Used by: Pulse tenant API.

Scopes

Choose the narrowest scopes that cover what a key has to do. A key without the scope an operation requires is rejected.

Failed authentication

A missing, malformed or revoked credential, and a credential without the required scope, are rejected before the operation runs. See Errors for the status codes and bodies.
