Authentication

API Keys

All API requests require a Bearer token in the Authorization header.

Authorization: Bearer rapi_live_YOUR_API_KEY

API keys are prefixed with rapi_live_ and are generated when you create your account or from the dashboard.

Keep your API key secret. Don’t commit it to version control or expose it in client-side code. Use environment variables instead.

curl https://api.rapportapi.com/research/TASK_ID \
