How to sign your requests?

info

For security and authentication, the Calaméo API requires each request to be signed.

The steps to sign a request​

  1. Sort the request parameters alphabetically
  2. Concatenate your API private (secret) key and the request's parameters key / value pairs
  3. Calculate the MD5 hash of this concatenated string
  4. Include the signature parameter in the request with this MD5 hash as value
