Header (Recommended)
The most secure and recommended method is to pass your access token in an Authorization header:
Authorization: Bearer <<apiKey>>
Query Parameter
For easier debugging and specific applications, it can be helpful to pass your token in the URL:
https://api.tessie.com/vehicles?access_token=<<apiKey>>
This is potentially less secure.
We recommend not passing your access token in the URL on insecure networks or behind VPNs where traffic logs could potentially be snooped.
