Overview

The PixelShield API lets you manage domains, backends, firewall rules, and analytics programmatically. Everything you can do in the dashboard, you can do through the API.

Base URL

https://api.pixelshield.net/api

Authentication

Generate an API key from Dashboard > Settings > API Keys. Include it in the Authorization header:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  https://api.pixelshield.net/api/domains

Rate limits

API requests are limited to 60 per minute per API key. Every response includes rate limit headers:

X-RateLimit-Limit: 60
X-RateLimit-Remaining: 58
X-RateLimit-Reset: 1700000000

If you hit the limit, you'll get a 429 response. Wait until the reset timestamp before retrying.

Error responses

All errors return JSON with a message field:

{"message": "Domain not found"}
