Authentication

The Recaudo API uses API keys to authenticate requests. Create an account to get your API keys.

Important: Never expose your Secret Key in client-side code. Use the Public Key for frontend operations.

API key types

Type Prefix Use
Public Key (Live) pk_live_ Frontend, checkout forms
Secret Key (Live) sk_live_ Backend, sensitive operations
Public Key (Test) pk_test_ Frontend development
Secret Key (Test) sk_test_ Backend development

Authentication via header

Include your API key in the header Authorization as a Bearer token:

curl https://recaudo.app/api/v1/customers \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_live_tu_secret_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"
$client = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();

$response = $client->request('GET', 'https://recaudo.app/api/v1/customers', [
    'headers' => [
        'Authorization' => 'Bearer sk_live_tu_secret_key',
        'Content-Type' => 'application/json',
        'Accept' => 'application/json',
    ]
]);

$data = json_decode($response->getBody(), true);
const response = await fetch('https://recaudo.app/api/v1/customers', {
  method: 'GET',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer sk_live_tu_secret_key',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
  }
});

const data = await response.json();
import requests

response = requests.get(
    'https://recaudo.app/api/v1/customers',
    headers={
        'Authorization': 'Bearer sk_live_tu_secret_key',
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    }
)

data = response.json()
