API authentication

Before you can work with the API, you need to get an IAM token:

• Guide for Yandex accounts.
• Guide for service accounts.
• Guide for federated accounts.

Specify the received IAM token when accessing Yandex Cloud resources via the API. Provide the IAM token in the Authorization header in the following format:

Authorization: Bearer <IAM_token>
