To authenticate your requests to the Pipecorn API, you’ll need to include your API key in the request headers.

​
Getting your API key

You can find your API key in your Pipecorn dashboard settings.

​
Using your API key

Include your API key in the X-API-KEY header with all API requests:

​
Personal and workspace API keys

Every plan gives each user a personal API key, sent in the X-API-KEY header. Workspaces on the Scale plan can also create a workspace API key, sent in the X-WORKSPACE-KEY header instead.
Send one or the other, not both. A request carrying X-WORKSPACE-KEY does not need X-API-KEY.

​
Account rotation

Requests authenticated with a workspace key are not tied to one member’s LinkedIn or Sales Navigator session. Pipecorn rotates them across the accounts connected by the members of your workspace, so live extraction throughput grows with the size of your team and no single account carries the whole load.
Use a workspace API key for anything that should outlive one person’s account or needs sustained volume: production integrations, CRM syncs, scheduled jobs, and shared agents or MCP clients. Keep personal API keys for scripts and experiments you run yourself.
Workspace API keys are only available on the Scale plan. On other plans, use a personal key. See pricing for what each plan includes.
