IdenticAPI

Authentication

IdenticAPI uses API key authentication via the Authorization header.

API key format

Keys use the format:

idapi_test_...  (development) idapi_live_...  (production)

Request header

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Security practices

  • Never expose API keys in client-side code or public repositories
  • Use development keys for testing, production keys for live traffic
  • Rotate keys by creating a new key and revoking the old one
  • Keys are shown only once at creation — store them securely

Legacy RapidAPI endpoints

Legacy utility APIs (sentiment, IBAN validator, etc.) continue to use RapidAPI authentication with X-RapidAPI-Key headers. See individual API pages for details.
