Authentication

The Emailhook API uses API key authentication.

Getting Your API Key

1. Go to Settings
2. Create a new API key
3. Copy the key (it starts with apk_)

Using Your API Key

Include your API key in the Authorization header as a Bearer token:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer apk_your_api_key_here" \
     https://api.emailhook.com/v1/inboxes

Code Examples

JavaScript (fetch)

const response = await fetch('https://api.emailhook.com/v1/inboxes', {
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer apk_your_api_key_here',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  }
});

const data = await response.json();

Python (requests)

import requests

headers = {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer apk_your_api_key_here',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}

response = requests.get('https://api.emailhook.com/v1/inboxes', headers=headers)
data = response.json()

Security Best Practices

• Keep your API key secret - never commit it to version control
• Use environment variables to store your API key
• Rotate your keys regularly for enhanced security
