API Key Authentication

The Meow API uses API key authentication. Include your API key in the x-api-key header with every request.

Obtaining an API Key

You can create and manage API keys from the Meow Dashboard.

Multi-Entity Access

For API keys with access to multiple entities, include the x-entity-id header to scope requests to a specific entity:
Use the /api-keys/accessible-entities endpoint to list all entities accessible by your API key.
