Welcome to the Authentication API documentation! This section provides comprehensive information about our authentication services, which are essential for securing your applications.

Overview

The Authentication API allows you to authenticate users and manage their sessions. It provides secure and efficient methods to handle user credentials and ensure that only authorized users can access your application's resources.

Features

  • User Registration: Register new users with secure password hashing and email verification.
  • User Login: Authenticate users with username and password.
  • Session Management: Create, retrieve, and invalidate user sessions.
  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Implement an additional layer of security for user authentication.

Getting Started

To get started with the Authentication API, you'll need to:

  1. Create an API Key
  2. Set up your environment

API Endpoints

Here are the available endpoints for the Authentication API:

  • POST /register: Register a new user.
  • POST /login: Authenticate a user and create a session.
  • POST /logout: Invalidate the current user session.
  • POST /2fa: Enable or disable two-factor authentication for a user.
