Authenication for Expensify API

Hi Team,
We are using Expensify API to fetch data from expensify and updating Category/Tag values via api.
Are there any other(more secure option like certificate/any other) option available apart from Username and Password to call/use this api?

Hi @Sandipan_Pal09 - welcome to the Community! Expensify's API is self-serve, but here is a link to our API Resources article.
Please let us know if you have any further questions!

@Sandipan_Pal09 thanks for reaching out! There are no other options available that I am aware of, but could you please clarify what concerns you regarding the current method?

@Cheryl Walsh - Thanks for the response.
These are just username and password. So we wanted to check if any additional layer of security can be added to use the api or not. Something like certificate or private key.
Kindly let me know.

@Sandipan_Pal09 I understand. We do not currently support certificate-based authentication for access to our API. However, all requests to our API are protected using standard TLS encryption protocols, and we are (PCI/SOC/etc) compliant. Hope this helps!
