Authorization
Authorization: Basic <base64-encoded-API-token>
The Account Export API uses API tokens to authenticate requests. Your API token must be a strict Base64 encoding of your API Key ID and its API Secret Key, separated by a colon. You can use an existing API token if it has the required permissions or ask an account administrator to generate a new one from the Personalization UI by navigating to Security > API Tokens > Create Token. For more information on API tokens, see Personalization API Tokens on the Salesforce Help site.
Alternatively, if you use cURL to interact with the API, you can send your API Key ID and its API Key Secret using the -u "apiKeyId:apiKeySecret" command-line option. cURL automatically converts the apiKeyId:apiKeySecret pair into a Base64-encoded string and adds the Authorization: Basic <base64-encoded-API-token> to the request header. For an example of how to pass your API credentials in a cURL request, refer to the Example section in this article.
