​
Development vs Production

We handle development and production environments at the credential level. We will issue you with a set of dashboard and API credentials you can use for development purposes during your trial / onboarding phase.

When you’re ready to move to production, please contact us, and we will issue you a set of production credentials.

​
Dashboard

Once you have used your dashboard credentials to log in, you will be able to see your API credentials (api_key) in the dashboard under Settings.

If you haven’t received access, please speak to your Heron rep, or email us at [email protected].

To reset your password, go to the Forgot your password page. You will receive an email with instructions.

​
API

Once you have used your dashboard credentials to log in, you will be able to see your API credentials (api_key) in the dashboard under Settings.

Your API Key is found on the API Credentials section of the settings page

We use an HTTP header for authentication. Just provide HTTP header x-api-key with value as shown above.

Here is an example of how to use the API key in a curl command:

curl "https://app.herondata.io/api/hello_world/authenticated" \
--header 'x-api-key: <api_key>'
