In this guide, you’ll learn how to:
  • Obtain your API credentials
  • Authenticate requests using your credentials
  • Use API versioning to maintain backward compatibility

​
Step 1: Create an account

Start by creating an account on the Conduit Dashboard.
Once registered, you’ll have access to your organization’s workspace and can configure API access.

​
Step 2: Generate your API credentials

Navigate to API Keys in the dashboard to generate your API key and secret. For sandbox: Toggle to “Sandbox On” (top right) before generating credentials. Store credentials securely in your .env file or secrets manager.
No API Keys section? You need admin or developer permissions. Contact your account manager for access.

​
Step 3: Authenticate your requests

Use the X-API-Key and X-API-Secret headers in every request. Here’s an example showing how to authenticate a customer creation request: 
curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.conduit.financial/customers \
  --header "X-API-Key: your_api_key" \
  --header "X-API-Secret: your_api_secret" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --header "Api-Version: 2024-12-01" \
  --data '{
    "name": "John Doe"
  }'

​
Versioning

Conduit uses API versioning to ensure backward compatibility. Specify the version in the Api-Version header of your requests. Current version: 2024-12-01
