Pica authenticates your API requests using API keys. Include your API key in the x-pica-secret header of your requests:

Environments

From the dashboard, you can create two different types of API keys that correspond to two distinct environments:

Sandbox
environment

Build out your end-to-end UX safely using test credentials

Production
environment

Launch your new UX confidently using isolated live credentials

Connector Scoping

Connectors are scoped to Environment and cannot be moved between environments once created. Both Sandbox and Production environments include unlimited Connections and unlimited API calls. All testing should be done in the Sandbox environment.
