Authentication

Authenticate your requests using your HacxGPT API key.

API Key Format

HacxGPT API keys start with hk-proj- followed by a unique token. You can manage your keys from the HacxGPT dashboard.

Bearer Token (Recommended)

Pass your API key in the Authorization header as a Bearer token. This is the standard method and works with all OpenAI SDKs.

Authorization: Bearer hk-proj-YOUR_API_KEY

Alternative: x-api-key Header

You can also pass your API key using the x-api-key header.

x-api-key: hk-proj-YOUR_API_KEY
