API Keys

The API Keys tab manages the keys associated with your workspace.

• Each new workspace receives one system-generated key

• All workspaces can have multiple API keys, but must always have at least one active key

• Users can add and delete API keys, as well as whitelisting domains and IPv4 addresses if they so choose.

Every request requires an API key.

You may authenticate in two ways:

1. Embed the key in the URL:

Curl

curl "https://lb.nodies.app/v2/<network-name>?apikey=<your-api-key>" \
-X POST \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \

Python

from web3 import Web3
import requests

# Define the Web3 provider with API key in the URL
client = Web3(Web3.HTTPProvider('https://lb.nodies.app/v2/<network-name>?apikey=<api_key_here>'))

JavaScript

import { Web3, HttpProvider } from 'web3';

// Define Web3 client with API key in the URL
const client = new Web3(new HttpProvider('https://lb.nodies.app/v2/<network-name>?apikey=<your-api-key>'));

1. Pass the key as a header:

Curl

curl https://lb.nodies.app/v2/<network-name> \
-X POST \
-H "x-api-key: <api_key_value>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \

Python

from web3 import Web3
import requests

#define a http session with an api key
http_session = requests.Session()
http_session.update({'x-api-key': 'api_key_here'})

#defined the web3 provider
client = Web3.HTTPProvider('https://lb.nodies.app/v2/<network-name>')

JavaScript

import { Web3, HttpProvider } from 'web3';

// define web3 client
const client = new Web3(new HttpProvider('https://lb.nodies.app/v2/<network-name>', {
    providerOptions: {
        headers: {
            "x-api-key": "api_key_value"
        }
    }
}));
