API authentication
Adjust offers several API (Application Programming Interface) endpoints. You can use these endpoints to work with your Adjust data outside of your Adjust dashboard.
To start working with Adjust's APIs, you first need to authenticate. The authentication process ensures that only authorized users can work with your data. Follow the instructions in this guide to find your Adjust API token and use it with your API calls.

Availability
- Users need Reader, Editor, Custom, or Admin permissions to use an authorization token.
Find your Adjust API token
Before you can start making API calls, you first need to find your Adjust API token. You can find your Adjust API token in your Adjust dashboard.
Your Adjust API token is located in your profile. To find it, follow these steps:
- Select the settings icon () in the bottom left corner.
- Select Account settings. Your account settings page opens.
- Select the My profile tab.
- Your API token is shown with your User details. Select the copy button () to copy the token to your system clipboard.
Reset your Adjust API token
You can reset your Adjust API token at any time. Resetting your token invalidates the old token. This means that any requests made using the old token will not work. If you reset your Adjust API token, you need to make sure to update it wherever it is in use.
- Select the settings icon () in the bottom left corner.
- Select Account settings. Your account settings page opens.
- Select the My profile tab.
- Your API token is shown with your User details.
- Select Reset API token. A popup modal appears.
- Enter your account password in the modal and select Reset to reset your API token. The modal closes and a confirmation appears in the top right of the screen.
- Select the copy button () next to the API token to copy the token to your system clipboard.
Use your Adjust API token to authenticate API calls
Once you have retrieved your Adjust API token, you can use it to authenticate your API calls. To do this, you need to pass the token in the Authorization
request header with your API calls.
The Authorization
header uses the following format: Authorization: Token token={API_TOKEN}
