Prezio API uses token-based authentication for all requests. We support both standard API tokens and JSON Web Tokens (JWT). This guide explains how to obtain and use API tokens effectively.

​
Authentication Flow

1

Obtain an API token

Get your unique API token through the Prezio customer dashboard or by contacting support.

2

Include the token in requests

Add your token to the Authorization header with prefix Token for all API requests.

3

Access API resources

Make authenticated requests to any Prezio API endpoint you have permission to access.

​
Obtaining API Tokens

Customer Dashboard [coming soon]

  1. Log in to the Prezio Customer Dashboard
  2. Navigate to the API section
  3. Create a new API token with appropriate permissions
  4. Save the token securely - it won’t be displayed again

Contact Support

For enterprise access or if you don’t have dashboard access, contact:

support@prezio.eu

Include your account details and required access level.

Upon initial registration, users receive a sandbox token valid for 30 days. Our team will contact you near the end of this period to discuss extending access based on your needs.

​
Using API Tokens

Include your token in the HTTP Authorization header with the prefix Token:

Authorization: Token YOUR_API_TOKEN

​
Example Requests

curl -X GET "https://api.prezio.eu/api/live/?country=DK&tariff_id=tar_123" \
  -H "Authorization: Token YOUR_API_TOKEN"

Security Best Practices

​
Handling Authentication Errors

401 Unauthorized

{
  "detail": "Invalid token."
}

The token is invalid, expired, or missing. Verify you’re using the correct token with the “Token” prefix.

403 Forbidden

{
  "detail": "You do not have permission to perform this action."
}

Your token lacks permission for the requested resource. Contact support to adjust permissions.

Authentication failures count toward your rate limits. Implement proper error handling to avoid excessive authentication attempts.

​
Environment-Specific Authentication

Remember to use the appropriate token for each environment:

# Sandbox environment
Authorization: Token YOUR_SANDBOX_TOKEN

# Production environment
Authorization: Token YOUR_PRODUCTION_TOKEN
