Authentication & Rate Limits

Authentication

Mudrex enforces strong security measures. To call any private endpoint, you must:

Verify your identity: Complete KYC verification (PAN & Aadhaar) and enable two-factor authentication for your Mudrex account.

Generate an API key: In your dashboard, create an API key. Copy the secret and store it securely, as it will not be displayed again.

All endpoints under /fapi/v1 require the following headers:

Header	Value	Required
X-Authentication	your_api_secret	Yes
Content-Type	`application/json`	Only for POST/PATCH/DELETE requests
