Authentication

The Streamoji API uses temporary Auth Tokens to secure requests. You must include a valid token in the Authorization header for every API call.

Authorization: Bearer <AUTH_TOKEN>

Generating an Auth Token

To generate an Auth Token, you need to call the getAuthToken endpoint from your backendusing your Client-Id and Client-Secret (obtained from the Developer Console).

Tokens are valid for 30 minutes and you can generate unlimited tokens.

const CLIENT_ID = "YOUR_CLIENT_ID";
const CLIENT_SECRET = "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET";

async function getAuthToken(userId, userName) {
  const response = await fetch(
    "https://us-central1-streamoji-265f4.cloudfunctions.net/getAuthToken",
    {
      method: "POST",
      headers: {
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
        "Client-Secret": CLIENT_SECRET,
        "Client-Id": CLIENT_ID,
      },
      body: JSON.stringify({ userId, userName }),
    }
  );

  const data = await response.json();

  if (!data.success) {
    throw new Error("Auth token generation failed");
  }

  return data.authToken; // Valid for 30 minutes
}

Request Parameters

• userId: A unique identifier for the user (e.g., "user_123")
• userName: Display name for the user (shown in Developer Console)

The userId and userName help you track activity in the Developer Console, allowing you to see usage metrics per user.
