Auth

The Porla API is protected with JWT bearer tokens. To call either the events API or JSONRPC API, you need to issue one.

info

Before issuing tokens, make sure you have set a secret_key. Otherwise all tokens will become invalid when Porla restarts.

Issuing a token

To issue a token, run Porla with the auth:token command.

porla auth:token

This will print a JWT token to stdout with no expiry. Make sure to protect the token and only pass it to applications you trust. In a future update, Porla will add support for expiry and permissions.

Using tokens

After you have issued a JWT, accessing the API is easy. Pass it in the Authorization as Bearer <token>.
