Start using our API in 5 minutes

You can generate your API key at the Customer Portal.

For more information regarding API keys you can visit our Knowledge Base.

In order to access our API, you will need to issue your requests against https://api.leaseweb.com

To authenticate your call, add your API key to the request header `X-Lsw-Auth`.

Now that you know how to authenticate an API call, it is time to make your first test call. In this example, you will retrieve a list of Bare Metal Servers you currently have at Leaseweb.

To begin, your first request may look like this:

<?php
$resource = '/bareMetals/v2/servers';
$apiKey   = 'xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx';
$apiUrl   = 'https://api.leaseweb.com';

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $apiUrl . $resource);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array("X-Lsw-Auth: $apiKey"));
$output = curl_exec($ch);

echo $output;
