About

This Utility API lets you extract files from an archive.
Extracting a zip file is important to ensure proper access to the files contained within it. These compressed files cannot be directly used by most applications, and they need to be extracted in order to be accessed. By extracting the files, you can access them in their original format, and they can be easily opened and used by the intended application.

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.
