📋 Steps to get started with Eversend

This guide assumes you already have an Eversend account and access to our Dashboard.

  1. 🔑 Retrieve an Eversend clientId and clientSecret key
  2. ✍️ Make a request
  3. 💻 Start building!

1. 🔑 Retrieve an Eversend clientId and clientSecret key

To use Eversend products, you need a clientId and clientSecret API key to authenticate your requests.
You can retrieve API keys from the dashboard /settings/webhook

To retrieve your clientId and clientSecret key from your dashboard, First, select the "Settings" tab and navigate to "Developers"

6116

Developers tab on settings page, showing your client id and client secret with webhook secret and webhook endpoint

Retrieve your clientId and clientSecret key, which will be used later in this guide, to make API requests.

2. ✍️ Make a request

You can interact with the Eversend infrastructure provider in your command line by making requests to REST APIs.
In this section, we're going to get a token using the clientId and clientSecret from the dashboard.
To get started, simply pass in the clientId: "your-id" and clientSecret: "your-secret" to your header.

Here is an example you can run from Postman or any API service platform.

Request sample:

curl https://api.eversend.co/v1/auth/token \
-X GET \
-H "clientId": "yryryryryr" \
-H "clientSecret": "yryryryryr" \
-d '{}'

Response sample:

{
  "status": 200,
  "token": "eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCIsImtpZCI6IjE0ZkpUTmM0UzVsNkRPYnVRbGVGWSJ9"
}
