# Authentication

## Authorization Header

To authenticate, add an `Authorization` header to your API request that contains an **API Key**.

## Api Key

IskyTracking’s Web API v1 supports the use of API Keys. API Key is generated automatically on the page <https://app.iskytracking.com/profile>

To use keys, you must set a plain text header named “Authorization” with the contents of the header being “Bearer XXX” where XXX is your API Secret Key.
