Authentication

The AccessVtu API uses token-based authentication. You must include your API key in the Authorization header of every request.

Getting Your API Key

1. Log in to your AccessVtu Dashboard
2. Navigate to Developer Tools → API Keys
3. Generate a new API key or copy your existing one

Authorization Header

Include your API key using the Authorization header with either the Bearer or Token prefix:

curl -X GET "https://accessvtu.com.ng/api/get-networks?service=airtime" \
  -H "Authorization: Token YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"

<?php
$url = 'https://accessvtu.com.ng/api/get-networks?service=airtime';

$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt_array($ch, [
    CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
    CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => [
        'Authorization: Token YOUR_API_KEY',
        'Content-Type: application/json',
    ],
    CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,
]);

$response = curl_exec($ch);

if (curl_errno($ch)) {
    echo 'cURL Error: ' . curl_error($ch);
}

curl_close($ch);
$data = json_decode($response, true);
print_r($data);
?>

const response = await fetch(
  'https://accessvtu.com.ng/api/get-networks?service=airtime',
  {
    method: 'GET',
    headers: {
      'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
  }
);

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

import requests

url = 'https://accessvtu.com.ng/api/get-networks'
headers = {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
}
params = {'service': 'airtime'}

response = requests.get(url, headers=headers, params=params)
data = response.json()
print(data)

Rate limit headers are included in every response:

X-RateLimit-Limit: 100
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 87
X-RateLimit-Reset: 1693420800
