Overview

AnySite uses API key authentication to secure access to all endpoints. You’ll need to include your API key in the request headers for all API calls.

​
Getting Your API Key

1

Create Account

Visit anysite.io and create your account
2

Generate API Key

Navigate to your account settings and generate a new API key
3

Secure Storage

Store your API key securely and never expose it in client-side code

​
Authentication Methods

​
Access Token Header (Required)

Include your API key in the access-token header: 
curl -X GET "https://api.anysite.io/tokens/statistic" \
  -H "access-token: YOUR_API_KEY"
The AnySite API does not use Bearer token authentication. Always use the access-token header.

​
Rate Limits

API requests are subject to rate limiting to ensure fair usage:
Rate limits vary by endpoint and subscription plan. Check your dashboard for current limits.

​
Error Responses

When authentication fails, you’ll receive one of these responses:
​
401 Unauthorized
error
Invalid or missing API key
​
403 Forbidden
error
API key doesn’t have permission for this resource
​
429 Too Many Requests
error
Rate limit exceeded

​
Best Practices

  • Store API keys as environment variables
  • Use different API keys for different environments
  • Rotate API keys regularly
  • Monitor API usage in your dashboard
  • Never commit API keys to version control

​
Testing Authentication

Test your authentication setup with this simple request: 
curl -X GET "https://api.anysite.io/tokens/statistic" \
  -H "access-token: YOUR_API_KEY"
