API Reference

Authentication

You will be provided with an API key after requesting access. Then you can make a POST request to /authenticates passing your key in the Authorization header. The response will contain a bearer token which is valid for 24 hours in sandbox and 1 hour in production. You can use this bearer token to access all other API routes.

The bearer token is a JSON Web Token. You can read more about JSON Web Tokens here, and find libraries for working with them here.

All unauthenticated requests will return a 401 status code.

You can see an example request to /authenticates below.

curl --request POST \
     --url https://nexhealth.info/authenticates \
     --header 'Nex-Api-Version: v2' \
     --header 'Authorization: YOUR_API_KEY'

Successful authentication will result in a response containing a bearer token.

Using bearer tokens
