Accessing the API
There are two sets of externally accessible APIs for the InfoSum platform: v1 and v2.
Our core API documentation is labeled as V2 as we manage the migration and deprecation of our older platform. A limited set of features like Insight Queries are not yet covered by V2 but are accessible on the V1 API which is scheduled for deprecation. Some features like Collaboration, Audiences and Segments are only available via the UI. We are working to bring the entire feature-set of the InfoSum Platform to the V2 API as soon as possible
You can use the same API key (V2) to access both versions of the API.

Where to find the API keys
Creating an API key is done from the accounts page under Access → API Keys V2
V2 API Keys
Create a new V2 API Key by clicking the “New API Key” button. This brings up a modal allowing you to name the key being created and select the expiry date for the key. Clicking the grey icon to the side of the date allows you to select a different expiry date. The maximum allowable expiry date is 12 calendar months from today. Clicking create will present a model with a single value for the API key
Using the V2 token
In Postman select the Authorization tab, the type is API Key, the Key is “Authorization” the value is the full string of the “API Key token”
With the API key in place you can use any of the APIs from the API v1 or v2 documentation. As example of use in Postman is given below
if using curl to test the V2 API the equivalent command is
curl -H "Authorization: <API Key token>" "https://api.infosum.com/api/v2/cloud_vaults"
