Authentication

API Keys

To authenticate your requests to the Palabra API, you need to get API keys. Each set of API keys includes a ClientID and a ClientSecret. You use these credentials as headers in every API request.

Access Token

Some actions require a temporary access token instead of the standard API key credentials — for example, connecting to the Palabra WebSocket or WebRTC servers. Access tokens are retrieved using your ClientID and ClientSecret.

tip

Operations that require an access token are clearly labelled in the relevant API documentation.
