API

Fillthedoc provides a REST API for programmatic access.

Authentication header

The API uses bearer authentication. Add the following header to each API HTTP request;

Authorization: Bearer <token>

Creating an access token

Access tokens (aka API keys) can be created and managed via account settings.

Press Add token to create a new token. When adding a token, specify a name that reflects what the token will be used for.

Copy the value of the Key field, which is uses for the authentication. Beware that the key is only displayed when creating an access token. If you loose this value, simply remove the token and create a new one.

Under Advanced options you can limit a key to specific folders. By default a key can access templates from any folder.

It's also possible to give a key super privileges, which allows you to create access tokens via the API. This is generally not recommended.
