h2. Authentication
To interact with projects that are not open to the public (ie. not having the projects [[RedmineProjectSettings#General-settings|public setting]] ticked) you _must_ use your API keyor username/password. The API key is a handy way to avoid putting a password in a script. key. You can find your API key on the My account page ( /my/account ) when logged in, on the right-hand pane of the default layout. The API key may be attached to the GET request as a "key" parameter or it may be passed in as a username with a random password. (Note that at the time of this writing, the "key" parameter will not be able to retrieve a specific project and can only retrieve all projects.)
+Examples _(not real keys)_+:
<pre>
GET /projects.xml?key=1a022b4661da64e5dca53ebab0c94ad7
GET /projects/12.xml?key=1a022b4661da64e5dca53ebab0c94ad7
GET /projects/redmine.xml&key=1a022b4661da64e5dca53ebab0c94ad7
