Always keep your API-key secret. If the key is compromised, you can change it here; you will then need to update all your apps.**

Use Hawk HTTP-authentication

If you activate this option, a signed request can be verified. However, you must implement the client side for this authentication method yourself and integrate it into your applications.

Use the shared secret to sign your requests. To do this, you must derive a key from the shared secret using the PBKDF2-algorithm.
