Using Authentication Credentials

Include your credentials in each API request. Here’s an example request:

curl --request POST \
  --url https://itlinks.to/v1/links \
  --header 'Authorization: <API_KEY>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
  "data": {
    "name": "LINK_NAME",
    "domain": "itlinks.to",
    "slug": "UNIQUE_SLUG",
    "rules": [
      {
        "url_ratios": [
          {
            "url": "destination.url",
            "ratio": 1
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}'

​

Securing Your Credentials

• Never expose your API keys in publicly accessible areas such as GitHub, or client-side code.
• Store your keys securely using environment variables or a secure key management service.

​

Handling Expired or Compromised Credentials

If your credentials are expired or compromised, immediately delete the compromised key, generate a new API Key, and update your applications accordingly.
