# Authentication

We use API keys to authenticate requests. You can find your API keys in the [Bayou Dashboard](https://staging.bayou.energy/dashboard).

Authentication is provided through HTTP Basic Authentication. Use your API key as the username value in the Basic Authentication scheme. The password value does not need to be filled.
