Xeneta Authentication

Authentication

The Xeneta API authenticates every request with an API key passed in the X-Auth header over HTTPS only — plain HTTP and unauthenticated requests are rejected. Keys are self-service generated in the Security section of the Xeneta account settings (https://app.xeneta.com/my-account/security) for accounts with API access. The separate airline reports API (Selfie) uses session-cookie authentication: POST username/password to /api/selfie/rest_auth/login on the airline host.

Xeneta secures its APIs with apiKey and sessionCookie across 2 declared security schemes, as derived from its OpenAPI definitions.
