Usage

Authentication

Before accessing protected routes, you need to obtain an authentication token by sending a POST request to the /api/auth/login endpoint with your credentials. The token should be included in the Authorization header of subsequent requests.

Create Transaction

To create a new transaction, send a POST request to the /api/transactions endpoint with the transaction details in the request body. Make sure to include the authentication token in the Authorization header.

Example:

http
POST /api/transactions HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:3000
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer your_auth_token

{ "amount": 100.00, "currency": "USD" }

Get Transactions

To retrieve transactions, send a GET request to the /api/transactions endpoint. You can use query parameters for pagination.

Example:

http
Copy code
GET /api/transactions?page=1&limit=10 HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:3000
Authorization: Bearer your_auth_token
