  • Enter the base URL for each environment:
    • Production: https://api.paystack.co
    • Sandbox: (if available, use the appropriate URL or duplicate production for testing)

Setup Envs

8. Set Up Authorization​

  • Choose the type of authorization:
    • Credential Access: For expiring tokens (not typical for Paystack).
    • Token Access: For non-expiring tokens (recommended for Paystack).
  • For Paystack, select Token Access. Fill out the form to specify where your token should be attached in requests (e.g., in the headers as Authorization).

Tip: Paystack uses non-expiring secret keys, so Token Access is the best choice. Make sure to paste your secret key in the correct field and select headers as the location.

Setup Auth

You’ve now added and configured your Paystack app in Ductape! Continue to set up resources, connect to products, and automate workflows as needed.
