Authentication

The ArcSite API uses API tokens to authenticate requests. You can view and manage your API tokens by visiting the ArcSite web UI.

Authentication to the API is performed via the HTTP Authorization header:

cURL

curl "https://api.arcsite.com/v1/projects" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your_api_token_here"

JavaScript

const response = await fetch("https://api.arcsite.com/v1/projects", {
  headers: {
    Authorization: "Bearer your_api_token_here",
  },
});
const data = await response.json();

Python

import requests

response = requests.get(
    "https://api.arcsite.com/v1/projects",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer your_api_token_here"},
)
data = response.json()

All API requests must be made over HTTPS. Calls made over plain HTTP will fail, and requests without authentication will also fail.

The header takes the following form:

Authorization: Bearer your_api_token_here

Note

You must replace your_api_token_here with your own API token.
