X-API-Key HTTP request header — this is the preferred method:
api_status enabled.
Deprecated: api-key query parameter
The api-key URL query parameter is still accepted for backwards compatibility
but is deprecated and will be removed in a future release:
Role scoping
Each API key is bound to a specific user role and cannot call endpoints outside that role:
Calling an endpoint with the wrong role’s key returns
403 Forbidden.
Where to find your key
- Affiliate / Advertiser — dashboard → Profile → API.
- Manager — admin panel → Users → Managers → → API.
Security best practices
- Use HTTPS only — HTTP does not protect the key in transit.
- If a key is leaked, rotate it from the dashboard immediately.
- For server-to-server integrations, store keys in a secrets manager (e.g. AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault) rather than in source control.
