For security, licensing, and tracking purposes, you’ll need to obtain an authentication token and create an account before you can use the REST APIs.
Note: You must have a paid subscription to access our guitar collections. For more information, contact us.
Prerequisites

Generating Authentication Tokens
- Open a Web browser.
- In the address bar, enter http://groovyguitars.com/api/get_nonce/json=get_nonce&controller=user&method=register
- The following response displays: {“status”:”ok”,”controller”:”user”,”method”:”register”,”nonce”:”a2c3ec8e25″}.
- The last element of the response is the authentication token and will be unique. Write down the token value or save it to a text editor for later reference.
Note: To generate a different token, clear your browser cache and generate the token again.
