Basic Authentication with API Keys

The Quickbutik API uses Basic Authentication where you use your API key as both the username and password.

How it works:

  1. Format your credentials as api_key:api_key (using the SAME API key for both username and password)
  2. Base64 encode the formatted string
  3. Include in the Authorization header as: Authorization: Basic ENCODED_STRING

Example:

  • API Key: sk_live_abc123
  • Formatted: sk_live_abc123:sk_live_abc123
  • Base64 Encoded: c2tfbGl2ZV9hYmMxMjM6c2tfbGl2ZV9hYmMxMjM=
  • Header: Authorization: Basic c2tfbGl2ZV9hYmMxMjM6c2tfbGl2ZV9hYmMxMjM=

cURL Example:

curl https://api.quickbutik.com/v1/orders -u your_api_key:your_api_key

All API requests must be made over HTTPS. Requests made over HTTP will be rejected.

API keys can be generated in the Quickbutik Control Panel under Settings → API.
