Authentication

The API supports three authentication methods:

  • Signed Fetch (Scene): Used for scene-based requests from decentraland-kernel-scene

  • Signed Fetch (Explorer): Used for explorer-based requests from dcl:explorer

  • Bearer Token: Used for service-to-service communication

Most endpoints require Signed Fetch authentication with a complete identity header chain including scene metadata (sceneId, parcel, realmName).
