    Create and manage subscriptions in Saasybill from your own platform.


    Every request is authenticated with an API key sent as `Authorization:
    Bearer saasybill_live_…`.

    Writes accept an `Idempotency-Key` header. It is required to create a
    subscription.

    Webhooks, errors, pagination and idempotency are covered in the guides
    alongside this reference.
