## Get Started with Hirempire API

  <Step title="Create Your API Token">
    To begin, go to your [Hirempire API Tokens](https://app.hirempire.com/dashboard/settings/tokens). From there, you can:

    * Set the expiry (30 Days, 90 Days, or Never Expire)
    * Generate your access token

  <Step title="Authenticate Your Requests">
    Use the token in the **`Authorization`** header:

    ```http theme={null}
    Authorization: Bearer sk-••••••••••••
    ```

    * The token grants full access to your workspace's API
    * Keep it safe; treat it like a password
