Authentication - Stride Agents

API Keys

All API requests require authentication via an API key. You can create and manage API keys from your dashboard.

Pass your API key in the Authorization header as a Bearer token:

curl https://api.strideagents.com/v1/agent \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_your_api_key"

Alternatively, you can use the X-API-Key header:

curl https://api.strideagents.com/v1/agent \
  -H "X-API-Key: sk_your_api_key"

All API endpoints are available at:

https://api.strideagents.com/v1

Keep your API keys secure. Do not share them in publicly accessible areas such as GitHub, client-side code, or public repositories.

API requests are rate limited per API key. If you exceed the rate limit, you’ll receive a 429 Too Many Requests response.

The API uses standard HTTP status codes:

Status Code	Description
`200`	Success
`201`	Created
`400`	Bad Request — invalid parameters
`401`	Unauthorized — invalid or missing API key
`402`	Payment Required — insufficient credits
`404`	Not Found — resource doesn’t exist
`422`	Validation Error — request body failed validation
`429`	Too Many Requests — rate limited
`500`	Internal Server Error
