API workflow

Getting started

Make sure you've read What's in it for you for more info on how to register and start testing APIs.

Authentication

The API follows the KPN Store API Authentication Standard to secure the API. It includes the use of OAuth 2.0 client_id and client_secret to receive an access token.

Go to the Authentication tab on top of this page to find out how to:

• Authenticate to an API using cURL.
• Authenticate to an API on Swaggerhub.
• Import Open API Specifications (OAS), also called Swagger files into Postman.
