API Key Authentication
All API requests (except /health) require an API key passed via the X-API-Key header:
curl "https://api.arbiterapi.com/v1/markets" \
-H "X-API-Key: arb_live_abc123..."
Getting an API Key
Option 1: Sign up via API
curl -X POST "https://api.arbiterapi.com/v1/auth/signup" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"email": "you@example.com", "password": "your-password"}'
Option 2: Dashboard
Sign up at arbiterapi.com/signup to get your key from the dashboard.
Managing Keys
You can create multiple API keys per account and revoke them individually:
# List your keys
curl .../v1/keys -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_JWT"
# Create a new key
curl -X POST .../v1/keys \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_JWT" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"label": "production"}'
# Revoke a key
curl -X DELETE .../v1/keys/key_id \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_JWT"
