Introduction

Welcome to the Howuku API! You can use our API to access Howuku API endpoints, which can get information on various products such as recordings, heatmap, feedback, and survey.

Authentication

To authorize, use this code:

# With shell, you can just pass the correct header with each request
curl "https://api.howuku.com/v1/path"
  -H "Authorization: APIKEY"

Make sure to replace APIKEY with your API key.

Howuku uses API keys to allow access to the API. You can get a new Howuku API key at our Howuku dashboard.

Howuku expects for the API key to be included in all API requests to the server in a header that looks like the following:

Authorization: APIKEY
