Overview
Authentication

Authentication depends on the environment in which you run Nango.

Nango Cloud

Simply use the Nango Secret Key available in your Project Settings as Bearer token in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer {nango-secret-key}

Nango Self-Hosted

By default, Nango Self-Hosted does not require to authenticate API requests, which is well-suited for local testing.

If you plan to release Nango Self-Hosted in production, please visit the self-hosting instructions.

Once you have enabled API authentication, use Basic auth instead of Bearer auth.
