API auth
With API key auth, you ship a key-value pair to the API both inside the request headers or question parameters. In the request Authorization tab, select API Key from the Type listing. Enter your key name and price, and pick out either Header or Query Params from the Add to dropdown listing. You can keep your values in variables for extra security. Postman will append the applicable facts in your request Headers or the URL query string.
