Authentication

VisitorAPI does not require an API key because it’s designed to be used on the front-end, where API key can be exposed to the public and it is not a secure solution.

Instead, VisitorAPI authenticate the API calls based on calls’ referral domains.  That means, before you use the API on a domain, you must put the domain in the VisitorAPI settings to open the API to accept requests from the domain.

There are two ways to add a domain to the authentication domain list.
