Authentication

All Demandbase API endpoints require a JWT Bearer token in the authorization header.

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN

📘 For instructions of generating API tokens, see the Generate A JWT Bearer Token section.

Generate Your Token

Before making authenticated requests, you must exchange your API credentials for a JWT Bearer token. Reference Generate an access token for exact payload specifications.

curl --request POST \
  --url https://uapi.demandbase.com/auth/v1/token \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'Accept: application/json' \
  --data '{
    "grantType": "client_credentials",
    "clientId": "YOUR_CLIENT_ID",
    "clientSecret": "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET"
  }'
