# Authentication

All UnleashX API endpoints require authentication using a token in the request header.

## Using Your API Token

Include your API token in the `token` header for all authenticated requests:

```bash theme={null}
curl -X POST https://www.tryunleashx.com/api/v1/global/verify \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "token: your_api_token_here" \
  -d '{}'
```

## Getting Your API Token

### UnleashX Portal

1. Sign in to the UnleashX portal at `https://www.tryunleashx.com/login`.
2. Open **Profile & Settings** → **API Key** (or **API Key** under your profile).
3. Click **Generate API Token** (or **Create API Key**). Copy the generated token value.
4. Store the token securely. Treat it like a password — do not share or check it into source control.

Notes:

* Tokens generated in the portal are persistent and do not expire by default (rotate them if compromised).
* Use the `token` header when calling APIs (some endpoints also accept `api_access_token`).

Successful response (example):

```json theme={null}
{
  "message": "API token generated successfully",
  "token": "your_api_token_here"
}
```

Use that returned value as your API token (`token` header) for subsequent API calls.

### Verify Token API

Use this API to validate an API token. It is typically used by clients or middleware to ensure the token is valid before making protected requests.

* **Endpoint:** `POST /api/v1/global/verify`
* **Headers:** `token` (string, required) — the API token to validate
* **Content-Type:** `application/json`
* **Description:** Validates the provided API token. Returns `200 OK` when the token is valid; returns `401 Unauthorized` when the token is invalid or expired.
