Security & Authentication

Your data is safe with us.

The following measures are in place to securing the two way communication with Playment servers

Authentication:

While creating a task authenticate your account by including your secret key in API requests.
The secret x-api-key ensures that only you are able to access your projects.
We expect the API key to be included in all API requests sent to our server. Every user can generate personal API keys to access Playment data

Callback Authorization:

Playment can also provide to you the final annotation data via API by subscribing to our callback APIs.
If you’d like to authenticate our callbacks, Playment can send a x-playment-key header with each callback. You will need to share the key with us via a secure channel.

Network Security:

To ensure network security, you can whitelist our IP address 52.66.129.133 so that you accept callback requests originating only from our servers

Support for old x-client-key based authentication will be deprecated on October 30, 2020.
We recommend existing customer to switch to the new authentication (i.e. via x-api-key) method soon for improved security
