Definitions

Here are some definitions that will help explain a few concepts as you integrate cNGN into your projects:

Base URL: The root URL for accessing the cNGN API, from which all endpoints are derived.

API Key: A unique identifier that allows access to the cNGN API, ensuring secure communication.

Encryption Key: A cryptographic key used to encode data, ensuring that only authorized parties can decode and access the information.

SSH Public Key: The public part of an SSH key pair you generated, used to securely authenticate a client or user without transmitting sensitive information like passwords.

SSH Secret Key: The private part of an SSH key pair, kept confidential by the user to securely connect to servers or services that recognize the corresponding public key.
