Authentication

The Beyond API uses API keys to authenticate requests. You need to include your API key in all API requests to our server.

​

API Key Header

Include your API key in the request headers using:

x-api-key: your-api-key

​

Obtaining an API Key

1. Create an account at www.beyondnetwork.xyz
2. Send an email to contact@beyondnetwork.xyz with your registered email address
3. You will receive your API key via email

​

Security Best Practices

• Keep your API key secure and confidential
• Never expose your API key in client-side code or public repositories
• Use environment variables to store your API key
• Rotate your API key if you suspect it has been compromised

​

Error Responses

If authentication fails, you may receive one of these errors:

• 401 Unauthorized: Missing API key
• 403 Forbidden: Invalid API key

Example error response:

{
  "error": {
    "message": "Missing API key in request headers",
    "code": 401
  }
}
