Before you can start querying Informed K12 via API, you need to provide valid authentication through an API token. Each user has their own API token that grants API access to all the processes in their organization.

Accessing API tokens

You must have the Form Admin role or the People Admin role to be able to generate an API token.

1. Log into your Informed K12 account.
2. Click on the avatar in the top right corner.
3. Select API Keys.
4. Generate new API Key. Please note that you will only see your token one time after its generated and will be hidden after that. You can generate a new token, and can have multiple tokens.

Using your API token

When you make your API call, your API Key is what goes in the X-Authorization header. Alternatively, you can pass your API Key in as a bearer token in the Authorization header as Bearer <Your API KEY>.
