API Authentication

Authentication requires passing your Authentication Bearer token for the desired environment (sandbox or production) in the header of your API request.

The following is an example request that returns all users with the required authentication headers. Simply replace ${appId} and ${appSecret} with your corresponding API keys, which you can find in the API dashboard.

curl \
--request GET \
--url https://sandbox-api.withabound.com/v2/users \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer <<apiKey>>'

const { default: Abound, Environment } = require("@withabound/node-sdk");

const abound = new Abound({
  appId: "<<sandbox_app_id>>",
  appSecret: "<<sandbox_app_secret>>",
  environment: Environment.SANDBOX,
  apiVersion: "v2",
});

(async () => {
  const response = await abound.users.list();
  console.log(response);
})();

import requests

url = "https://sandbox-api.withabound.com/v2/users"

headers = {
    "Accept": "application/json",
    "Authorization": "Bearer <<apiKey>>"
}

response = requests.request("GET", url, headers=headers)

print(response.text)

Request request = new Request.Builder()
  .url("https://sandbox-api.withabound.com/v2/users")
  .get()
  .addHeader("Accept", "application/json")
  .addHeader("Authorization", "Bearer <<apiKey>>")
  .build();

Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();
