API Authentication

Authentication is performed using API tokens. Each user has a unique API token that is used to identify and authorize their requests.

To authenticate your API requests, include your API token in the Authorization header of your HTTP requests using the Bearer token scheme:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN

curl -X GET "https://dzconfig.com/api/user" \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
     -H "Accept: application/json"

fetch('https://dzconfig.com/api/user', {
    method: 'GET',
    headers: {
        'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN',
        'Accept': 'application/json'
    }
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => {
    // Process the response data as needed
})
.catch(error => {
    // Handle errors appropriately
});

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://dzconfig.com/api/user');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, [
    'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN',
    'Accept: application/json'
]);

$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

$data = json_decode($response, true);
print_r($data);

You can test if your authentication is working correctly by making a request to the /api/validate endpoint:

curl -X GET "https://dzconfig.com/api/validate" \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
     -H "Accept: application/json"

If your authentication is successful, you should receive a response with a 200 status code and a JSON object containing a success message:

If your authentication fails, you will receive a response with a 401 Unauthorized status code and an error message:

Common reasons for authentication failures include:

• Invalid or expired API token
• Missing Authorization header
• Incorrect format of the Authorization header

To keep your API token secure:

• Never share your API token with others
• Do not include your API token in client-side code
• Use HTTPS for all API requests
• Regenerate your API token if you suspect it has been compromised
