Setting up and using an API token

BluFiles supports two types of tokens: user tokens and "uploader" tokens. User tokens are associated with a user logging in using the login page, and uploader tokens can be manually generated by a user.

Uploader tokens are useful for allowing scripts and other applications to upload files.

Before you can access the API, you need to create a token. See Generating API Tokens for more information.

Consuming the API

Once you have a token, you can use it to authenticate with the API.

The token should be included in the Authorization header of your requests, using the following format:

Authorization: token <generated API token>

You can find more information about the endpoints in the API Reference.
