Authentication Schemes

Limio provides two APIs to interact with the Limio app. Each of these API has a specific authentication scheme as detailed here.

OAuth Bearer Token

The OAuth Bearer Token authentication method allows secure, server-to-server authentication without user involvement. It enables interaction with most of Limio's APIs, including the Order API, Subscription API, Abandoned Basket API, and External Identities API. This is typically the method you will use to get started.

API Keys

The API Key authentication method gives access to the Catalog API specifically and is read-only. You can use it to retrieve information about a Page or an Offer.

The API is designed so that end-users are not able to discover information about the Limio app data, for example searching is not allowed. This allows for the public key to be set in the HTML pages that are delivered to the end-user. This API is designed for high-volume web facing queries to the Limio app.
