Frequently Asked Questions

Data Fetcher supports all common API authentication methods including OAuth 1.0/2.0, Bearer tokens, Basic authentication (username/password), API keys as headers or URL parameters, and AWS Signature V4 for Amazon Web Services. This comprehensive support ensures you can connect to virtually any authenticated API your business uses—from popular services like Google Ads, Facebook Ads, and Stripe to custom internal systems.

Data Fetcher makes OAuth authentication simple with built-in support for the full OAuth flow. For popular services like Google, Facebook, and Microsoft, we provide pre-configured OAuth connections that work out of the box. For custom OAuth implementations, you can enter your client credentials and Data Fetcher will handle the authorization process, securely storing and refreshing tokens as needed.

Yes, Data Fetcher treats your authentication credentials with the highest security standards. All sensitive information like API keys, tokens, and passwords are encrypted. For OAuth connections, Data Fetcher stores refresh tokens securely and handles token refresh automatically, following security best practices. Your credentials are only used to authenticate API requests and are never shared with third parties or used for any other purpose.

Data Fetcher offers multiple ways to authenticate with API key-based services. For APIs that expect the key in a header (most common), use the "Header" authentication type and specify your API key name and value. For services that require the key as a URL parameter, use the "Parameter" authentication type. The setup takes just seconds, and Data Fetcher will automatically include your API key with every request to the service.
