Authentication
The API provides protected endpoints that require authentication and public endpoints that do not require authentication but are actively monitored.
For the protected endpoints, you need an API Key. You can generate your API key via your account on the Coinify's Payments Dashboard:
Check the Environments section for sign-up links to Sandbox and Production environments.
All requests to protected endpoints must contain the following header:
X-API-KEY: <api_key>
For example,
X-API-KEY: sandbox_ac81bcf0-5f17-46d2-9bc9-50c7331c5c6c
X-API-KEY: production_6cc917b2-800d-4e04-aef1-7c2465122110
All public endpoints do not require an authentication header, unless the request is made from a blocked jurisdiction.
Making requests from a blocked Jurisdiction:
If you are making requests to our API from a blocked jurisdiction, make sure to include the API Key in the header of all your requests, both for public and private API endpoints.
Note
The API Key has the following format:
<environment>_<uuid>
, where the environment issandbox
for our testing environment andproduction
for production usage.
