Authorization

All calls to the Metronome API require an authorization token. You can create a token and give it a friendly name in the Metronome dashboard. The name you give the token is associated with API calls that use that token, so this can be helpful when tracking who or what made a change. We encourage you to provide descriptive names and create as many tokens as is useful.

Be sure to save the token you create. You won't be able to view the full token again.

When making calls to the API, provide an API token by using the Authorization header. The value of the header should be the word Bearer, followed by a space, followed by your API token, as in the following example:

GET /v1/... HTTP/1.1
Host: api.metronome.com
Authorization: Bearer TOKEN
