Tracxn Authentication

Authentication

Authentication profile for the Tracxn API v2.2. Tracxn does not publish a public OpenAPI; the reference documentation sits behind the platform login. The API authenticates every request with an account-scoped access token passed in a lowercase `accesstoken` HTTP header. Tokens are issued from the Tracxn platform under Data Solutions > API & Developer Tools (separate Playground and production tokens). Requests without a token are rejected with a JSON error envelope (errorCode 403000000, "Invalid web session access. No user." observed live on 2026-07-21). No OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, or scope surface is documented.

Tracxn secures its APIs with apiKey across 1 declared security scheme, as derived from its OpenAPI definitions.
