# Using the App API
|
||
|
|
||
|
In order to use the app as an API, you will need to configure requests to the API as so:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Configure your request with Basic Auth. Set the username to be the same as `API_USER` and password as the `API_KEY` (`API_USER` and `API_KEY` are environment variables that should be set for the application)
|
||
|
* Check the endpoint you are calling is an action that is `create`, `show` or `update`
|
||
|
* Check you are setting the following request headers:
|
||
|
* `Content-Type = application/json`
|
||
|
* `Action = application/json` N.B. If you use `*/*` instead, the request won't be recognised as an API request`
|
||
|
|
||
|
Currently only the logs controller is configured to accept and authenticate API requests, when the above API environment variables are set.
