Generate API token

2 min read · API & integrations

An API token enables programmatic access to ePulz.io - creating monitors, fetching uptime data, integration into your own tools.

Generating a token

1. In the dashboard, go to API tokens 2. Click + New token 3. Enter a name (for clarity, e.g. 'CI/CD pipeline', 'Internal dashboard') 4. Choose the scope of rights (read-only or read-write) 5. Copy the token - it will be shown ONLY ONCE

Usage

The token is sent in the Authorization header: Authorization: Bearer plz_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Security

- Token = password. Do not share publicly, do not commit to git. - For CI/CD, store as a secret (GitHub Actions secrets, GitLab CI variables, env var) - If you suspect a leak, immediately revoke the token and generate a new one - Regularly audit the list of active tokens and delete unused ones
