# Introduction

> Teleskop provides a public REST API which exchanges JSON over HTTPS. In this section, you will find guidance about working with the Teleskop API.

<Note>
  The Teleskop API is built on **REST** principles. We enforce **HTTPS** in
  every request to improve data security, integrity, and privacy.
</Note>

## Base URL

All requests contain the following base URL:

```json theme={null}
https://api.teleskop.dev
```

## Authentication

To authenticate, you need to add an `X-API-KEY` header with the contents of the header being `ts_xxxxxxxxx`. You can generate an **API Key** in the developer settings page of your workspace.

```json theme={null}
"X-API-KEY": ts_xxxxxxxxx
```
