API Secret

API secret is a string which is used to create a signature for Render link URLs, apiSecret is used along with all screenshot options that you have set to create a signature , which is then added to Render Link.

This provides a secure way to tell our API endpoint that the request and all the options set by you remain same and intact, in this way no one can modify any options using your Render link and create a new screenshot using your accessToken.

API secret is highly recommended in a production environment like on a live website or application which open for public usage.

You can enable and disable apiSecret requirements for your API key from API keys page from dashboard.

We have example code for multiple programming languages on how to create a signature using apiSecret, these examples will give you an idea on how to do this in any language of your choice.
