Create an API key when your server needs to call WADial. Keep the key on your server and never expose it in frontend code.

​
Create the key

  1. Open the WADial dashboard
  2. Click API Keys
  3. Click Create key
  4. Enter a name, such as production-orders
  5. Copy the secret before closing the dialog
WADial shows the secret once. If you lose it, revoke the key and create a new one.

​
Store the key

Store the secret in your server’s environment variables: 
WADIAL_API_KEY=wd_...
WADIAL_BASE_URL=https://api.wadial.com
Use separate keys for production, staging, and local development.

​
Send an authenticated request

Include the key as a bearer token: 
curl "https://api.wadial.com/api/v1/sessions" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $WADIAL_API_KEY"
If a key is no longer used, revoke it from API Keys.
