Overview

The Skyden API lets partner apps access pilot flight data with user consent. Pilots generate a linking code in the Skyden app, your app redeems it, and you can then fetch their flight totals.

Note

By using the Skyden API you agree to the Developer terms. Pilot data is accessed under each pilot’s explicit consent and must be handled accordingly.

Authentication

All requests require your API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY

Requests with a missing or invalid key receive a 401 response.

Scopes

API keys are issued with one or more scopes. Request the scopes you need when emailing support@skyden.app for a key.

Scope	Grants
pilot-totals	Read access to GET /v1/pilot-totals and GET /v1/pilot-totals/batch

Calls without the required scope receive 403 INSUFFICIENT_SCOPE.

Rate limiting

• Each API key has a per-minute request limit, set at issuance. The default tier is 100 requests per minute. Higher tiers are available on request. Email support@skyden.app to discuss a higher limit.
• Exceeding your limit returns 429 RATE_LIMITED with a Retry-After: 60 header (seconds).

Request IDs

Every response (success or error) includes a meta.request_id (e.g. req_d69af077). Log it. When opening a support ticket, include the request_id and we can trace the exact request in our logs.
