Dashboard Admin API

Last updated: 1 minute read.

What is the Dashboard Admin API?

The Dashboard Admin API provides functions for:

  • Creating an Organisation
  • Modifying an Organisation
  • Creating a User

These functions are designed to bootstrap a new API Dashboard installation with a base organisation and a base User for that organisation.

This API should not be used for anything else except for the above purposes.

The Admin API is secured using a shared secret, this secret is set in the tyk_analytics.conf file.

The Admin API requires a header called admin-auth to be included to differentiate the call from a regular API call.
