Authentication

Learn how to authenticate and secure your documentation projects

Overview

Authentication is a critical aspect of securing your documentation projects on the Annu Gulati Documentation platform. We provide multiple authentication methods to ensure your content remains protected while allowing appropriate access for team members and stakeholders.

Use API keys for programmatic access to documentation endpoints.

Setting Up Authentication

Follow these steps to configure authentication for your documentation projects.

Generate API Key

Navigate to your account settings and generate a new API key for programmatic access.

curl -X GET \
  'https://api.annugulati.com/v1/projects' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'

Configure OAuth

Set up OAuth application credentials in your project settings.

Test Authentication

Verify your authentication setup by making test API calls.

Remember to rotate your API keys regularly and never expose them in public repositories or client-side code.
