Getting Started
Learn how to authenticate and make your first request.
Step 1 — Generate an API Key
1
Open your organization Settings
Log in to InputBuffer.io and navigate to your organization. In the left sidebar, click Settings to expand the settings menu.
2
Go to API Tokens
Under Settings, click API Tokens. This page lists all active tokens for your organization.
Click the Create New Token button in the top-right corner.
3
Name your token and save it securely
Give your token a descriptive label (e.g. "Production Server" or "CI/CD Pipeline"), then click Create Token.
Important: The token is only shown once. Copy it now and store it somewhere safe — you cannot retrieve it again after closing this dialog.
Step 2 — Make Your First Request
All API requests are authenticated with a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Requests are scoped to the organization the token belongs to.

ib_ and widget tokens with ibw_. These prefixes let secret scanning tools like GitHub push protection automatically detect accidentally committed tokens. For example: ib_550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000_Abc123...Example: Submit feedback
