Overview

Getting an Access Token

To access the API, you will need to provide an access_token to authenticate with Webflow. You can acquire that token in one of two ways.

Utilize OAuth to allow your application’s users to authorize your app to access their Webflow account and data. Check out our OAuth Guide.
Issue a Site API Token that grants your application full access to your personal account. Check out our guide on Site API Tokens

Once you have an access_token, you can authenticate your HTTP request by including the token as an authorization header, or as a query-string parameter.

📘
Setting the token as an HTTP header is strongly preferred.

The following header should be used:
Authorization: Bearer <token>

curl https://api.webflow.com/info \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <<apiKey>>"

If you cannot set the access token in a header, it also may be passed in as part of the query string with the parameter access_token.

curl https://api.webflow.com/info?access_token=<<apiKey>>
