Authentication

The QUIS API uses an API key to authenticate requests. You can view and manage your API key in your company settings. Only your company’s admins can access and manage the keys.

You are responsible for keeping your keys secure. We recommend keeping them hidden to prevent abuse.

Authentication to the API is performed via query or body parameters. Examples are provided in each endpoint’s documentation.

All API requests must be made over HTTPS. Calls made over plain HTTP will be redirected and may fail. API requests without authentication will also fail.

Request Log

QUIS provides a request log and statistics in your company settings. The request log contains all your valid requests made to the QUIS API, meaning for example requests with invalid params are not logged. You can export your requests as a CSV file for further analysis.
