Getting the Authorization Token

To meet security standards, all API calls require an authorization token. After receiving the credentials from Coinme, the Partner can get the Authorization token using the Authorize endpoint.

The Authorization token has a 60-minute life and needs to be passed with each subsequent call. It is required per partner, not per individual customer.

Sample API Request: POST

URL: https://caas-staging.coinme.com/services/authorize
headers: 
'User-Agent: partnerapi',
'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
'Authorization: Basic *****************'

The partnerId is used for the Username field and clientsecret is used for the Password field

Authorization Example:

After receiving the Authorization token, the Partner can call the Coinme APIs with the Authorization JWT token in the header.
