Quick Start
Kick off your integration with K2 using the checklist below. Each step links to deeper guidance when you need it.

| Production | Live traffic | https://api.k2cyber.co | https://partners.k2cyber.co |
Sandbox Environment
The sandbox environment uses isolated synthetic data for integration development and testing. Use sandbox credentials to validate your integration before moving to production.
Store credentials securely in your secrets manager and rotate them according to your security policy.
3. Configure Authentication for API Requests
In order to integrate with K2 Cyber's API, each HTTP request must include the following headers:
x-integration-key: <INTEGRATION-KEY>authorization: Bearer <M2M-TOKEN>
These are configured via the Partner Portal.

- Webhook Portal: For details on subscribing to real-time events, see the documentation for managing Webhooks via our Portal.
5. Build & Test
- Develop and test your integration using the Partner Portal credentials.
- Register a webhook endpoint and send test events to confirm signature validation.
- Walk through the Partner Portal checklist until every item is flagged Complete.
Capture screenshots or logs as evidence for your go-live review.
