The API uses HTTP Basic authentication. Each request must be supplied with the authorization header.

The value of the authorization header is constructed as follows:

  • The API key is encoded using Base64
  • The authorization method “Basic” and a space is then put before the encoded string.

 

Example

Authorization: Basic QWxhZGRpbjvcGVuIHNlc2FtZQ==

Getting an API Key

An API Key can be obtained from the Maileon user interface. Each API Key has an expiration date and distinct privileges for the HTTP methods: GET, POST, PUT and DELETE.
