Every data provider on Databar uses one of four authorization methods. The method determines whether you need to supply your own API key, whether Databar handles authentication for you, or whether no authentication is needed at all.

​
No authorization required (No Auth)

Some providers offer publicly accessible endpoints that don’t require authentication.
  • No API key is needed — just configure the enrichment and run it.
  • These enrichments display a “No API key required” badge in the catalog.
  • Each request consumes 0 credits and 1 action.

​
Authorization required (API key)

For providers that require authentication, you supply your own API key from the provider’s website.
1

Obtain your API key

Visit the data provider’s website and generate or copy your API key from their developer dashboard.
2

Add the key to Databar

Click the key icon on the enrichment card, then click Authorize. Paste your API key into the field and save.
3

Use across endpoints

Once you add a key to a data source, it becomes available across all endpoints from that provider — you don’t need to re-enter it for each enrichment.
Each request made with your own API key consumes 0 credits and 1 action. To remove or update a key, go to the My Connections / Integrations page in your workspace.
API keys you add to Databar are completely confidential. They are encrypted at rest and never accessed, viewed, or used by the Databar team.

​
Authorization via Databar (API Network)

Databar partners with 80+ data providers to offer keyless access through the API Network. You don’t need to sign up with each provider or manage any API keys — just click Run and Databar handles authentication on your behalf.
  • No setup needed for supported providers.
  • Each request consumes API Network credits based on the provider’s per-row cost.
  • Some providers are only available on paid plans.
Even for providers available through the API Network, you can add your own API key if you prefer to use your own quota or rate limits. Your key takes priority over the API Network connection when both are configured.

​
OAuth

Integrations like HubSpot, Salesforce, and Pipedrive use OAuth for authentication. Instead of pasting an API key, you authenticate directly on the provider’s website.
1

Start the OAuth flow

Click the Authorize on [Provider] button on the enrichment or exporter card.
2

Authenticate on the provider's site

You’ll be redirected to the provider’s login page. Sign in and grant Databar the requested permissions.
3

Return to Databar

After authorizing, you’re redirected back to Databar. The connection is now active and ready to use.
Each request made through an OAuth connection consumes 0 credits and 1 action.
Databar currently supports one OAuth account per API integration. If you need to switch accounts, disconnect the current one from the Integrations page and re-authorize with a different account.

Security

All API keys stored on Databar are encrypted and treated as confidential. The Databar team never accesses, views, or uses your keys. You can delete any stored key at any time from the My Connections / Integrations page. If you have questions about data security, contact info@databar.ai.
