To get the authorization token, you can do one of a couple of things. You'll need to make an API call to get the authorization token, which then lets you make other more interesting API calls. Press the "Create Application Key" button and you'll have the two vital pieces of data you need for authenticating with Backblaze. A dialog captioned "Account ID & Application Key" appears. While logged in to the Backblaze site, click on the "My Account" link in the upper-right, then the "Show Account ID and Application Key" link. Install Postman, which allows you to access API endpoints without having to write an app, as well as save the calls you make and sync them online.Īs usual, you'll need to prove who you are before you can go making requests.If you're unfamiliar with APIs, read this first to familiarize yourself with the concept.When you sign up they give you 10GB free to play around with, so let's take advantage of that and check out the Backblaze B2 Storage API. They have a cloud storage service too, in the same vein as AWS, Rackspace, etc. I've been using them for years, and I even had to restore files when my hard drive succumbed to the "click of death" a couple years ago, so totally worth it.
If you're not familiar with Backblaze, they're a handy and inexpensive service that backs up your computer.
