Best Practices

Follow these guidelines for a smooth integration

Secure Your API Keys

Never expose API keys in client-side code or public repositories. Use environment variables and keep keys on your server.

Handle Rate Limits Gracefully

Implement exponential backoff when you receive 429 responses. Check the X-RateLimit headers to track your usage.

Implement Error Handling

Always handle API errors gracefully. Check response status codes and implement appropriate retry logic for transient failures.

Verify Webhook Signatures

Always verify webhook signatures to ensure requests are from Coordinated. This prevents unauthorized requests to your endpoints.
