How Logtail API works
Our API follows JSON:API specification.
You'll get a separate API token for each of your teams.​

Obtaining an API Token
To obtain the API token for your team:
Go to Team members
Click Configure team in the header
Click on the Direct API Token to copy it to the clipboard
Authorizing requests
API requests made to Logtail API are authorized using a Bearer Authentication standard.
That means you'll only need to add a header with Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN to your requests.
