Authentication
We make use of API keys to authenticate requests to the MyCover.ai API. Without an API key, any request made to the API will return a 401 error.
Generating Secret API keys
From your distributor dashboard, you can generate a secret API key for the environment you’re in. To get your API secret key, go to Settings > API Key & Webhooks.
For advanced security measures, we recommend using the public key rather than the secret key in public-facing scenarios, such as developing a frontend SDK based on ours or using any of the MyCover.ai SDKs. The secret key should be used exclusively for interactions with the MyCover.ai APIs from a secure backend environment.
We ask that you keep your API Keys safe as they are unique to you. If you think that the keys might have been compromised, generate a new set of keys from your dashboard.
Authorization method
To authenticate an API request, using HTTPS and the format below, include your secret key in the Authorization header.
