Authentication

You'll need to authenticate your requests to access any of the endpoints in the Quincy API. In this guide, we'll look at how authentication works. Quincy offers OAuth2 authentication with a token.

OAuth2 with bearer token

The recommended way to authenticate with the Quincy API is by using OAuth2. When establishing a connection using OAuth2, you will need your access token — you will find it in the Quincy dashboard under API settings. Here's how to add the token to the request header using cURL:

curl https://app.quincy.health/api/v1/prescriptions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {token}"

Always keep your token safe and reset it if you suspect it has been compromised.
