# Authentication

The Evertransit API uses API keys to authenticate requests. All you need to authenticate each request is to send a query parameter called apikey with the value of your apikey [obtained in the developer section of your dispatch](../../overview/how-to-obtain-an-api-key).

```batch
curl -G https://endpoints.evertransit.com/v2beta/auth/me \
  -d apikey=<your-api-key>
```
