All requests to the Trellis API need to have an Authorisation header like so with your unique API key:

Authorization="YOUR_API_KEY"

To generate your API key, sign up for a Trellis account here, and navigate to the settings page (bottom left). Then click ‘copy’.

Your API Key is Private

Your API key is private and shouldn’t be shared publicly. All requests to the Trellis API should be done server-side.
