Integration Steps

Step 1: Obtain Your API Key

Get your authentication credentials from your project dashboard.

Navigate to your AI Chat project dashboard
Go to the 'API Keys' section in your project settings
Generate a new API key for your project
Copy and securely store your API key

Step 2: Set Up Authentication Headers

Configure your HTTP requests with proper authentication headers.

Add the 'Authorization' header to all API requests
Use the format: 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY'
Replace 'YOUR_API_KEY' with your actual API key from Step 1
Ensure the API key is kept secure and not exposed in client-side code

Step 3: Make Your First API Call

Send a test message to verify your authentication setup.

Use the '/newUserMessage' endpoint for sending chat messages
Include required parameters: user_message, chat_id (or consumer_id for new chats)
Send a POST request with your authentication header
Verify you receive a successful response with assistant_response

Quick Start Example

A simple example of making an authenticated API call:

curl -X POST "https://your-api-endpoint.com/newUserMessage" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{
      "user_message": "Hello, how can you help me?",
      "chat_id": "",
      "consumer_id": "user123"
    }'

Important Security Notes

Never expose your API key in client-side code or public repositories
Use environment variables or secure configuration for API key storage
Regenerate API keys if you suspect they have been compromised
Each API key is tied to a specific username and project
API keys provide full access to your chat service - treat them like passwords

Next Steps
