You can authenticate via the LNPay.co API in multiple methods. This is provided so you can implement in whatever way is easiest for the device/platform you are working on. No particular method is preferred over the other at this point.

The docs use the HTTP Basic Authentication method

Get API Key

Login to https://lnpay.co and your API Key can be found here: https://lnpay.co/dashboard/integrations​

A LIVE test key pak_O0iUMxk8kK_qUzkT4YKFvp1ZsUtp is provided in the docs for you to play around with!

HTTP Header Authentication

X-Api-Key header can be used to authenticate

$ curl -H "X-Api-Key: pak_O0iUMxk8kK_qUzkT4YKFvp1ZsUtp" \
https://api.lnpay.co/v1/wallets

Query String Authentication

You can authenticate by passing the parameter access-token in the URL as a query string parameter.

$ curl https://lnpay.co/v1/wallets?access-token=pak_O0iUMxk8kK_qUzkT4YKFvp1ZsUtp

HTTP Basic Authentication

Basic authentication is also supported

# NOTE: the colon below prevents curl from asking for password
​
$ curl -u pak_O0iUMxk8kK_qUzkT4YKFvp1ZsUtp: \
https://lnpay.co/v1/wallets
​
​
# NOTE: you must base64 encode pak_O0iUMxk8kK_qUzkT4YKFvp1ZsUtp: when using raw authentication header
​
$ curl -H 'Authorization: Basic cGFrX08waVVNeGs4a0tfcVV6a1Q0WUtGdnAxWnNVdHA6' \
