Authentication
Learn how to authenticate with Vishnuraj pr Documentation APIs
Authentication Methods
Vishnuraj pr Documentation supports multiple authentication methods to ensure secure access to your documentation resources.
Use API keys for programmatic access to our REST API.
Generate API Key
Navigate to your account settings and generate a new API key.
curl -X POST https://api.vishnurajpr.com/api-keys \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_SESSION_TOKEN" \
-d '{"name":"My App Key"}'
Use in Requests
Include the API key in your request headers.
const headers = {
'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}`,
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
};
fetch('/api/documents', { headers })
.then(res => res.json())
.then(data => console.log(data));
Integrate with OAuth for user-based authentication in web applications.
const oauth2 = require('simple-oauth2');
const config = {
client: {
id: 'your-client-id',
secret: 'your-client-secret'
},
auth: {
tokenHost: 'https://api.vishnurajpr.com',
tokenPath: '/oauth/token',
authorizePath: '/oauth/authorize'
}
};
import requests_oauthlib
from requests_oauthlib import OAuth2Session
client_id = 'your-client-id'
client_secret = 'your-client-secret'
redirect_uri = 'https://yourapp.com/callback'
oauth = OAuth2Session(client_id, redirect_uri=redirect_uri)
Always store your API keys securely and never expose them in client-side code.
Token Management
Manage your authentication tokens effectively to maintain security.
Security Best Practices
Follow these guidelines to keep your documentation secure.
- Use HTTPS for all API requests
- Rotate API keys regularly
- Implement proper error handling
- Monitor authentication logs
Never share your authentication credentials in public repositories or forums.
Troubleshooting
Common authentication issues and their solutions.
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
Invalid token | Check token expiration and refresh if needed |
Access denied | Verify your permissions for the requested resource |
Rate limit exceeded | Implement exponential backoff in your requests |
Rate Limiting
Our API implements rate limiting to ensure fair usage.
- 1000 requests per hour for free tier
- 10000 requests per hour for paid plans
- Rate limit headers included in responses
curl -I https://api.vishnurajpr.com/documents \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN"
# Check X-RateLimit-Remaining header
