Authorisation

The Vulcan REST API is part of a suite of resources that are provided by our Beach Developer Platform.

In order to use the API, you must first obtain a valid developer account. This is in closed BETA right now and accessible by invitation.

You can apply by contacting us with details about your planned usage.

Once you have a Developer Account, you will require an active Developer Application.

This will provide you with:

Application ID

Client Secret

You will need these credentials in order to make requests on the Application Scope, or to complete the User Authentication flow, in order to obtain an access_token

Therefore there are two commonly used Authorisation methods, which should be passed in the headr of your request.

"Authorization": "application_id yourAppId, client_secret yourClientSecret"

"Authorization": "Bearer userBearerToken"
