Authentication & Access

To access the Edvak EHR API, applications must authenticate using OAuth 2.0, an industry-standard protocol for secure authorization. This ensures that only approved apps and users can retrieve patient data through the system.

How to Get Started#

Begin by registering through Edvak’s Onboarding form. After your request is reviewed and approved, you'll receive the necessary credentials:
client_id
client_secret
username and password
These credentials are unique to your application and user account, and must be kept secure.

Obtain an Access Token#

Once you have your credentials, you can exchange them for an access token using our token endpoint. This token is required to authenticate all further API requests.
The access token:
Proves that your app has permission to access data
Must be included as a Bearer token in the Authorization header
Expires after a set time (you may use the refresh token to obtain a new one)

Related API Endpoints#

You can find full implementation details in the APIs section:
Generate Token
Use your credentials to request an access token via POST. This token is required for all subsequent API calls.
CCDA Retrieval
Use the access token to securely retrieve patient health data in CCDA format via GET.
For error handling or more technical details, refer to the Errors section.
