Authentication
You'll need to authenticate your requests to access any of the endpoints in the Virlo API. The V1 API uses API key authentication exclusively. All requests must include your API key in the Authorization header as a Bearer token.
API key authentication
The Virlo API uses API keys for authentication. Your API key has the format virlo_tkn_<your_key> and can be obtained from your dashboard.
Include your API key in every request by passing it in the Authorization header:
Example request with API key
curl https://api.virlo.ai/v1/hashtags \
-H "Authorization: Bearer virlo_tkn_<your_key>"
Always keep your API key secure. Never commit it to version control or expose it in client-side code. If you suspect your key has been compromised, regenerate it from the dashboard.
Using an SDK
If you use one of our official SDKs, you won't have to worry about manually adding the header — add your API key to the SDK configuration, and the client library will include it in all requests automatically.
