Authentication

Authentication in the Content Island REST API is done using an access token that must be included in every API request in the Authorization header. This token is used to identify the project and ensure that only authorized users can access the data.

shell

curl https://api.contentisland.net/api/1.0/contents --header 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN'

Note

You can find the access token in your project’s General tab.

Note

For development purposes, you can access unpublished content by prefixing your access token with PREVIEW_. This allows you to preview and test content changes before they are published to production. Simply use PREVIEW_YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN as the token value to retrieve the pending to-be-published content.
