+# Authentication
+
+FluentCRM uses WordPress REST API. So you can use any authorization method that supports WordPress.
+
+Once you create your Application Password in WordPress, Add Authorization Header to every request.
+
+> Example API Call for contacts
+
+```shell
+# With shell, you can just pass the correct header with each request
+curl "https://yourdomain.com/wp-json/fluent-crm/v2/subscribers" \
+  -H "Authorization: BASIC API_USERNAME:API_PASSWORD"
+```
+
+**API Base URL:** `https://yourdomain.com/wp-json/fluent-crm/v2`
+
+### Creating API Key
+You can either create Application Password using WordPress's user editing Page. Please make sure, the user have access to FluentCRM.
+We recommend creating Application Password from inside FluentCRM. Navigate to `FluentCRM -> Settings -> Managers` and then create a Manager First. Please make sure the manager is not "Administrator" user role. Select the permissions you want to give to that user for FluentCRM.
