Authentication

Requires x-auth-token and x-device-id headers. Obtain these by calling the login endpoint with your Bayse account credentials.
You can also create API keys in the Bayse web app at app.bayse.markets/settings/api-keys, or in the web app, via More > Account Settings > API Keys in the Developer Tool section. Use this endpoint when you want to create keys programmatically.

Request body

name
string
required
A descriptive label for this key (e.g. "Production", "Trading bot"). Each API key must have a unique name in your account.

Example request

curl -X POST https://relay.bayse.markets/v1/user/me/api-keys \
  -H "x-auth-token: YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN" \
  -H "x-device-id: YOUR_DEVICE_ID" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"name": "Trading bot"}'

Response

id

The name you provided.
publicKey

Public key (pk_*) — include this in the X-Public-Key header on all authenticated requests.
secretKey
string
Secret key (sk_*) — use this to generate HMAC signatures. Only returned on creation.
signingInstructions
object
Instructions for generating valid request signatures.
createdAt
string
ISO 8601 creation timestamp.

The secretKey is only shown once. Store it securely — it cannot be retrieved again. If lost, rotate the key to generate a new one.
