The Verify OTP endpoint completes the authentication flow started by Send OTP. Submit the 6-digit code from your email to receive your user profile, team details, and API key. For new users, this automatically creates a team and generates an API key. This endpoint requires no authentication — use the OTP from your email.

Full Authentication Flow

Here is the complete two-step flow to get your API key programmatically:

Python

import requests

# Step 1: Send OTP
requests.post(
    "https://api.outx.ai/linkedin-agent/auth-send-otp",
    json={"email": "john@example.com", "full_name": "John Doe"},
)
print("Check your email for the OTP...")

# Step 2: Verify OTP (enter the code from your email)
otp = input("Enter the 6-digit OTP: ")
response = requests.post(
    "https://api.outx.ai/linkedin-agent/auth-verify-otp",
    json={"email": "john@example.com", "otp": otp},
)

api_key = response.json()["team"]["api_key"]
print(f"Your API key: {api_key}")
