Authentication is API key based. As an admin, you can generate an API key in Next Matter by going to Company > Next Matter API keys.

When sending requests to the API, authenticate by passing the API key in the "Authorization" HTTP header, prepended with the string "Api-Key ".

For example:

Authorization: Api-Key xyzabc.12fsfe242ubdgakew
