EpisodeTime API v1

Authentication

Authenticate approved developer requests with a scoped EpisodeTime API key.

Request header

Authorization: Bearer et_live_your_api_key
  • Production and test key formats use et_live_ and et_test_ prefixes.
  • The complete secret is shown once. EpisodeTime does not provide a later plaintext retrieval.
  • Use HTTPS only and never commit keys to public repositories or ship a privileged key in client-side code.
  • Rotate a compromised key; revoked and expired keys stop working immediately.
  • Android/user session bearer tokens are separate and do not become developer credentials.
