## Overview

The ecge API lets you manage projects, deployments, and resources programmatically. All endpoints follow REST conventions and return JSON responses.

The API reference below is generated from an OpenAPI specification.

## Authentication

All endpoints require a Bearer token. Include it in the `Authorization` header:

```json theme={null}
"security": [
  {
    "bearerAuth": []
  }
]
```

Generate API keys from your [ecge dashboard](https://app.ecge.dev/settings/api-keys).
