Authentication

All Oura402 API requests require authentication using an API key.

API Key Authentication

Include your API key in the Authorization header of every request:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Example Request

curl -X GET https://api.oura402.dev/token/info/MINT_ADDRESS \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your_api_key_here"

Obtaining an API Key

1. Sign up at oura402.dev

2. Navigate to your dashboard

3. Go to the "API Keys" section

4. Click "Generate New Key"

5. Copy and securely store your API key

Important: Your API key is sensitive. Never share it publicly or commit it to version control.

Security Best Practices

Use Environment Variables

Store your API key in environment variables:

JavaScript/TypeScript

// .env file
TURNPIKE_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

// In your code
const apiKey = process.env.TURNPIKE_API_KEY;

Python

Server-Side Only

Never expose your API key in:

• Client-side JavaScript

• Mobile apps

• Public repositories

• Frontend code

Always make API calls from your backend server.

Rotate Keys Regularly

Periodically rotate your API keys:

1. Generate a new API key

2. Update your application with the new key

3. Delete the old key once migration is complete

Rate Limits by Plan

Different API keys have different rate limits based on your plan:

Plan	Rate Limit
Standard	100 requests/minute
Premium	1,000 requests/minute
Enterprise	Custom limits

See Rate Limits for more information.

Testing Authentication

To verify your API key is working:

curl -X GET https://api.oura402.dev/portfolio/YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

A successful response indicates your API key is valid.

Authentication Errors

401 Unauthorized

Your API key is missing or invalid:

{
  "error": {
    "code": "UNAUTHORIZED",
    "message": "Invalid or missing API key"
  }
}

Solution: Check that you're including the correct API key in the Authorization header.

403 Forbidden

Your API key doesn't have permission for the requested resource:

{
  "error": {
    "code": "FORBIDDEN",
    "message": "Insufficient permissions"
  }
}

Solution: Ensure your plan includes access to the endpoint you're trying to use.

WebSocket Authentication

For WebSocket connections, authentication is handled differently. See WebSocket API for details.
