API Authentication
All requests to the Noxipay API require authentication using your API key. This ensures that only authorized applications can access your account data and process payments.
API Keys
You can find your API keys in your Noxipay dashboard under Settings > API Keys. We provide both test and live keys:
Test Keys
Start with pk_test_ or sk_test_
Use for development and testing
Live Keys
Start with pk_live_ or sk_live_
Use for production applications
Making Authenticated Requests
Include your API key in the Authorization header of your requests:
HTTP Header
Authorization: Bearer pk_live_your_api_key_here
Example Request
cURL Example
curl -X GET https://api.noxipay.com/v1/payments \
-H "Authorization: Bearer pk_live_your_api_key_here" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json"
SDK Authentication
When using our SDKs, you can set your API key once:
PHP
<?php
$noxipay = new Noxipay('pk_live_your_api_key_here');
JavaScript
const noxipay = require('noxipay');
const client = new noxipay('pk_live_your_api_key_here');
Security Best Practices
🔒 Keep Keys Secure
Never expose your secret keys in client-side code or public repositories
🔄 Rotate Keys Regularly
Generate new API keys periodically and revoke old ones
🌐 Use HTTPS
Always make requests over HTTPS to protect your data in transit
