Aurora Authentication

Authentication

Aurora's public JSON-RPC endpoints (mainnet.aurora.dev and testnet.aurora.dev) are open and require no API key or bearer token; access control is performed at the protocol layer by cryptographic signing of transactions with an Ethereum-compatible private key (secp256k1), exactly as on Ethereum. Read (eth_call, eth_getBalance, etc.) calls are unauthenticated; state changes (eth_sendRawTransaction) require a client-signed transaction, not an HTTP credential. Dedicated per-project RPC endpoints provisioned through Aurora Cloud may carry their own API key.

Aurora secures its APIs with none across 1 declared security scheme, as derived from its OpenAPI definitions.
