The Aegis API uses API keys to authenticate requests. You can view and manage your API keys in the Aegis Dashboard.
Your API keys carry many privileges, so be sure to keep them secure! Do not share your secret API keys in publicly accessible areas such as GitHub, client-side code, and so forth.
Authentication to the API is performed via HTTP Bearer Auth. Provide your API key as the bearer token value in the Authorization header.
All API requests must be made over HTTPS. Calls made over plain HTTP will fail. API requests without authentication will also fail.
Network issues happen. The Aegis API supports idempotency for safely retrying requests without accidentally performing the same operation twice.
Aegis can send webhook events that notify your application any time an event happens on your account, keeping your database perfectly synced.
The Aegis CLI lets you build, test, and manage your integration directly from the terminal. Stream real-time API logs and forward webhooks to your local server instantly.
