Authentication

To authenticate your API requests, you need to use bearer tokens. Include your bearer token in the Authorization header of each request.

​
Example using cURL

Here’s an example of how to make an authenticated request using cURL: 
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN" https://api.cdr.fyi/v1/orders

​
Obtaining an Access Token

To obtain an access token, follow these steps:
  1. Log in to your CDR.fyi account.
  2. Navigate to your settings page.
  3. Click on “API Access”.
  4. Click “Generate New Token”.
  5. Copy the generated token.
NOTE: You will need access to the CDR.fyi Partner Portal to use the API. If you do not have access, apply here. Important: Keep your access token secure and do not share it publicly. If you suspect your token has been compromised, generate a new one and update your application immediately.

​
Token Expiration

Access tokens currently do not expire. However, we recommend periodically rotating your tokens as a best practice for security.

​
Rate Limiting

The CDR.fyi API is rate limited to prevent abuse and ensure fair usage. If you exceed the rate limits, you will receive a 429 Too Many Requests response.

​
Current rate limits:

  • 100 requests per minute per token
  • 1000 requests per hour per token
If you need higher rate limits for your application, please contact us.
