Introduction

The Bitvora APIs and SDKs use API keys to authenticate requests. You can view and manage your API Keys in the Bitvora Dashboard (opens in a new tab).

Treat your API keys with the same care as a real Bitcoin private key. Do not share your API keys with anyone, and do not expose them in public repositories or client-side code.

Authenticating requests

To authenticate requests, include your API key in the Authorization header of your HTTP requests. The value of the Authorization header should be Bearer YOUR_API_KEY.

Typescript Example

import axios from 'axios';
 
const apiKey
const response = await axios.get('https://api.bitvora.com/v1/transactions/balance', {
  headers: {
    Authorization: `Bearer ${apiKey}`,
  },
});
