This guide shows you how to create an Akta API key and use it to start making requests. You can test the API directly in the Akta Playground or use the key in your own application, workflow, or backend service.

1. Log in to Akta Playground

Go to the Akta Playground login page: https://playground.akta.pro/login Enter your email and password, then click Continue with email. If you prefer passwordless login, click Login via OTP.
If you do not have credentials yet, click Sign up from the login page.

2. Create an API key

After logging in, open API Keys from the left sidebar. Enter a name for your API key: For example: Production API Key Then click Add API key.

3. Copy and store your API key

After creating the key, Akta will show your new API key once. Copy the key immediately and store it somewhere safe.
This is the only time the API key will be shown. If you lose it, you will need to create a new key.
Your key will look similar to this: wk_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not share your API key publicly or commit it to source control.

4. Test your API key in the Playground

Open Company News under API Playground. Paste your API key into the API key field. Then enter a company name or company URL. tesla or https://www.tesla.com/ You can optionally add filters:

The Playground generates request code in Python, JavaScript, and cURL, so you can test the API before integrating it into your own product or workflow.

5. Use your API key directly

You can also use your API key directly in your own code by passing it in the x-api-key request header.
curl -G "https://api.akta.pro/api/v1/company/news/" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode "company=tesla" \
