The access token is a string that contains credentials and permissions for accessing specific resources in the Fincrux API (e.g., company financials, stock data, etc.) or user data (e.g., personalized financial reports or saved queries).
To obtain an access token, you need to log in with your Email and Password via the /api/auth/login endpoint. This will return a refresh token and an access token which can be used for further API calls.
Send a POST request to the /api/auth/login endpoint with the email and password in the body.
curl -X POST \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ --url "https://api.fincrux.org/api/auth/login" \ -d '{"email": "your-email@example.com", "password": "your-password"}'

{ "success": "true", "refresh": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ0b2tlbl90eXBlIjoicmVmcmVzaCIsImV4cC", "access": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJ0b2tlbl90eXBlIjoiYWNjZXNzIiwiZXhwIjox", "full_name": "Fincrux Client", "email": "example@gmail.com", "profile_img_url": "https://i.ibb.co/B2tZ7h4c/Untitled.png" }
Note: The access token is valid for 1 hour (3600 seconds). After that time, the token expires and you need to request a new one.
To use the access token, you must include the following header in your API calls:
| Header Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Authorization | Valid access token in the format : JWT {Access Token} |
Always include the token in the Authorization header if you are using Access Token method.
You can also use the easier way of using API Keys instead of Access Tokens. Know more here.
curl -X GET \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -H "Authorization: JWT {access_token}" \ --url 'https://api.fincrux.org/api/search/RELIANCE'
Fincrux API supports both Access Token and API Key authentication methods. You can choose to use either of the two based on your application’s needs. However, you must ensure that only one method is used per API call.
