To access any of the Ovesio API endpoints, authentication is required through a unique token called X-Api-Key . This is transmitted in each request via the HTTP header.
How to send the API key?
Each request to the Ovesio API must contain the following header:
X-Api-Key: YOU_API_KEYThis is the standard method by which the system identifies the user and project from which the request originates.
Where do you find the API key in the Ovesio platform?
The API key is automatically generated for each project on the platform. To access it:
- Log in to your Ovesio account.
- Select the desired project from the top left corner of the application.
- Access the Settings menu on the left.
- Copy the key from the Api Token section
If you have multiple projects, each one will have its own separate key. The key can be regenerated at any time.
Why is there a key for each project?
Ovesio allows you to manage multiple projects in the same account. This is useful if you have, for example, multiple online stores or websites and you want to keep the translations separate. Like this:
- Each project has its own distinct translations;
- The keys do not mix;
- Costs and usage statistics are independent.
