Authentication

Application Authentication

Application-level authentication is controlled by using your API key as a Bearer token. You can request an API key by contacting your BMA administrator.

API Key

Once you have been issued a key, an example CURL request looks like this (replacing the <<api_key>> text with your own API key and <<example.bemyapp.com>> by the right subdomain):

curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://<<example.bemyapp.com>>/api/external/incoming-talks' \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <<api_key>>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json;charset=utf-8'

Requested URLs

URLs have to follow this pattern:

https://<<platform_name>>/api/external/<<endpoint>>

If your platform name is my-awesome-event and you want to request the /incoming-talks endpoint, you will need to request the following URL:

https://my-awesome-event.bemyapp.com/api/external/incoming-talks
