Getting started

Authentication

Every production data request is authorized with the API key attached to an active Praxy Jobs subscription.

Send your key

Add the key to the X-API-Key request header. Query-string credentials are not accepted.

curl
curl "https://praxyjobs.com/v1/jobs/search?q=platform+engineer&limit=10" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $PRAXY_JOBS_KEY"

Store it safely

Treat the key like a password. Keep it in a server-side secret manager or an untracked environment file and proxy browser requests through your backend.

Authentication errors

  • 401 — the key is missing, malformed, or unknown.
  • 402 — the subscription is pending, inactive, or the monthly allowance is exhausted.
  • 403 — the key is valid but the endpoint is outside its entitlement.
