# Authentication ### Beta authentication system To authenticate yourself against the api you must provide a bearer authorization token through the `Authorization` header. \ You will also need to provide your discord application id & your server id in the json body\ For now each token is linked to a bot id and a to a server id. As the api is on a beta stage, **only** [**private bot instance**](https://docs.invitelogger.me/pbi/what-is-a-private-bot-instance) owners can request access to it. ### Final authentication system: Each application will have a bearer token.\ Each discord servers will have a secret. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
