API overview
The MemStore API is an interface designed to manage resources using a code-based programming approach.
By using the APIs provided by MemStore, you can perform operations that are difficult to carry out via the console—such as managing multiple clusters, shards, and nodes, or handling repetitive and automated tasks. You can access Redis on KakaoCloud MemStore programmatically through the REST API.
- All API responses are returned in
JSON
format. - To use the API, an access key and user authentication token (API authentication token) are required.
- Before using the API, you must generate an access key, which will then be used to obtain the API authentication token.
Prepare to use the API
For a list of prerequisites required to call the API, refer to the Prepare to use the API guide.
Get access key
To obtain a user authentication token (API authentication token), you must first issue an access key, which includes an access key ID and a secret access key.
-
Go to KakaoCloud Console > Top-right profile > Credentials > IAM Access Key tab and issue an access key under your user credentials.
-
After issuing the access key, obtain the access key ID and secret access key. For more information, refer to the Prepare to use the API guide.
