Haunt.gg uses two types of API keys depending on the endpoint you want to access.

​
Key Types

​
Account API Key

Your Account API key is used for all endpoints except image uploads. It can be passed in two ways:
  • Query parameter: ?key=YOUR_ACCOUNT_API_KEY
  • Bearer token: Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCOUNT_API_KEY
Each key comes with the following permissions:
  • imagehost.gallery
  • imagehost.folders
  • lookup
  • leaderboard

​
ImageHost API Key

Your ImageHost API key is used exclusively for the /imagehost/upload endpoint. It is passed as a key field in the multipart form data of the upload request.

​
Accessing Your API Keys

1

Open your account setting

Visit your account settings in your dashboard and scroll to API Keys.
API Key Settings
2

Manage Keys

From there you can create new API keys, view existing keys, and revoke keys that are no longer needed.
After creating a new API key, make sure to copy and store it securely as it will not be shown again.

​
Restricted Permissions

Restricted permissions are:
  • lookup
  • leaderboard
These permissions have to be requested via application. To apply for those permissions, use the Request button in the API key settings.
