About
This Utility API lets you extract files from a password protected archive.
Extracting a zip file is important to ensure proper access to the files contained within it. These secure compressed files cannot be directly used by most applications, and they need to be extracted in order to be accessed with some password. It helps to ensure the security and integrity of the files, and can also help with organization and ease of access.

Authentication
All API requests to ApyHub services need to be authenticated. Currently we support
tokens
or basic authentication
mechanisms.
You can generate and view your existing credentials from your workspace settings (on the left side of the navbar) and go to “API Keys".Points to note:
- Credential secrets are generated on the fly and are not stored in plain text, so on generating a credential please save the secrets somewhere safe.
- Use the
apy-token
as the header parameter to pass the token. - Use the
Authorization
header to send the basic authentication credentials.
