Authentication

The Laminar API uses token-based authentication. All API requests must include a valid access token in the request headers.

API tokens are managed in your firm’s Settings > Integrations area. To generate a token:

  1. Navigate to Settings > Integrations > API Access
  2. Select Generate Token
  3. Give the token a descriptive name (e.g., “Accounting integration”)
  4. Copy the token — it will only be shown once

Include the token in the Authorization header of every request:

Terminal window
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
https://api.laminar.so/v1/matters
  • Tokens grant full access to your firm’s data — treat them like passwords
  • Rotate tokens regularly
  • Revoke tokens immediately if compromised
  • Each integration should use its own token
