Create an API Token

The Appeared.in API token is used as the Bearer token for requests to the Public API. It authenticates your organization and should be kept secret.

Use your token in the Authorization header:

$Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_API_TOKEN>

Public API access must be enabled for your organization by the Appeared.in team. You must also be an organization admin to create or manage API tokens.

1

Log in to Appeared.in

Go to app.appeared.in and log in to your account.

2

Open Public API settings

Open the Settings dropdown from the sidebar, then click Public API.

3

Create a new API token

In the Public API modal, enter an optional token name and click Create token.

Copy the token from the popup immediately. The full token is only shown once; after that, only its prefix is visible.

Each organization can create up to 5 active API tokens.

Best Practices

To keep your Appeared.in account secure, we recommend the following:

  • Use a unique API token for each application or service.
  • Store API tokens securely, such as in environment variables or a secrets manager.
  • Never expose API tokens in frontend code, browser storage, public repositories, or client-side logs.
  • Rotate API tokens regularly.
  • Revoke tokens that are no longer used.
