Authentication

Qard API uses two methods to authenticate API requests:

  • API Key
  • OAuth2.0 implicit

Api Key

To use the API with the Api Key authentication method you have to include the header X-API-KEY in every request.

curl -X GET "https://api.qardfinance.com/api/v6/clients" -H "accept: application/json" -H "X-API-KEY: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
Note

All API calls must be done from your server directly to our server, and not from a user's browser, otherwise your Api Key will easily be compromised.

OAuth2.0 implicit

OAuth2.0 implicit is the preferred way if you want to build an application which make api calls directly from a browser.

Please contact the support at support-api@qardfinance.com if you want to enable this authentication method.
