Authentication

There are two supported mechanisms to authenticate access to the Management API:

1. Dashboard User API Key

Requests can be authenticated by passing the dashboard user's API key. This will grant access to the tenant account to which the dashboard user belongs.

The details of this authentication method are described in the subsection Using User API Key.

2. Platform API Key

In addition, it's possible to access any tenant account using a platform-level master API key. This is intended for internal use within ShopGo.

The details of this authentication method are described in the subsection Using Platform API Key.
