​
API Token Authentication

The TensorPool API uses bearer token authentication. All API requests must include your API token in the Authorization header.

​
Getting Your API Token

  1. Log in to your TensorPool Dashboard
  2. Generate or copy your API token
Keep your API token secure and never share it publicly. Treat it like a password.

​
Making Authenticated Requests

Include your API token in the Authorization header with the Bearer scheme: 
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  https://engine.tensorpool.dev/me

​
Python Example

import requests

API_TOKEN = "your_api_token_here"
BASE_URL = "https://engine.tensorpool.dev"

headers = {
    "Authorization": f"Bearer {API_TOKEN}"
}

response = requests.get(f"{BASE_URL}/me", headers=headers)
data = response.json()

​
JavaScript/Node.js Example

const API_TOKEN = 'your_api_token_here';
const BASE_URL = 'https://engine.tensorpool.dev';

const headers = {
  'Authorization': `Bearer ${API_TOKEN}`
};

fetch(`${BASE_URL}/me`, { headers })
  .then(response => response.json())
  .then(data => console.log(data));

​
Testing Your Authentication

You can verify your API token is working by calling the /me endpoint: 
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  https://engine.tensorpool.dev/me
A successful response will return your account information.

​
Token Security Best Practices

  • Store tokens in environment variables, not in code
  • Use different tokens for different environments (development, production)
  • Rotate tokens periodically
  • Revoke tokens immediately if compromised

​
Error Responses

If authentication fails, you’ll receive a 401 Unauthorized response: 
{
  "error": "Invalid or missing authentication token"
}
Common authentication errors:
  • 401 Unauthorized: Invalid or missing token
  • 403 Forbidden: Valid token but insufficient permissions
