Authenticate with an API key from the compliance dashboard, sent in the `x-api-key` header or as a bearer token. A `cmp_sk_test_...` key acts on sandbox businesses and a `cmp_sk_live_...` key on production ones; both use the same base URL. New here? Start with the [eTIMS quickstart](/etims-quickstart). The conventions every endpoint shares are in [Authentication & API keys](/etims-authentication), [Errors & Troubleshooting](/etims-errors), [Idempotency](/etims-idempotency) and [Rate limits](/etims-rate-limits).
