View API (Public)

View API

View API is a read-only API to deliver content to web and mobile properties using Arc XP as a headless CMS solution. The API is available through a globally distributed CDN to accelerate content delivery and reduce latency.

Authentication

View API works with public-facing keys. These are different than your Arc Tokens that are used for the administration APIs. You can find documentation on how to create your API token: Provisioning tokens through Delivery API. Once you have an API key, you can use it to authenticate with the View API by sending it in the X-API-Key header on your requests.

See also Caching overview for View API.

Note: View API provisioning is not available for secondary organizations.
