The API for lending and embedded accounting automation
Codat makes it quicker and easier to build fintech products, like corporate cards, business dashboards, or SMB lending applications, that are integrated with the other systems small businesses use.
Beta Release
Exciting news! Our first C# library beta release is here, simplifying your development workflow with an effortless build process.
Codat uses API keys to control access to the API. Learn more about authentication and managing API keys here.
You must keep the API key secret, so make sure it isn't available in publicly accessible areas, such as GitHub and client-side code. Codat recommends the API key is only inserted at release time, and the number of people at your organization with access to your API key is minimised.
Codat expects the API key to be included in all API requests to the server, Base64 encoded within an 'Authorization' header.
Authorization: Basic BASE_64_ENCODED(API_KEY)To get your authorization header from the Codat Portal:
- In the navigation bar, click Developers > API keys.
- In the API Keys section, copy your authorization header rather than the API key itself.
