Authentication

How API and MCP requests authenticate.

The API and the MCP server authenticate with an API key, sent as a Bearer credential or in the X-API-Key header:

Authorization: Bearer emitkit_REPLACEWITHKEY

The key supplies the Organization and the Project. Don’t add an Organization or Project ID to a request body: EmitKit ignores them.

People sign in to the dashboard with their email and a password, or with a magic link. See API keys to create a key.
