API Access credentials

In order to access our API, you need to get your API key. The following guide explains how you can access the API.

Username / password for Heroku users

For heroku users, your username would be your app id (something like app123@heroku.com), and the password is your API key.

In order to check those values, open your dashboard:

$ heroku addons:open openredis

Then head to your account page.

Given the following information:

API username: app123@heroku.com
API key: 8nrqQbGO3yaSS9BToQn7mUxmEdX5rA54

Then you would access the API like so:

$ curl -u app123@heroku.com:8nrqQbGO3yaSS9BToQn7mUxmEdX5rA54 \
          https://openredis.com/api/v1/plans
