Base64 Encode: "api_key=secret"

The Base64 encoded version of "api_key=secret" is:

YXBpX2tleT1zZWNyZXQ=

How It Works

Base64 encoding converts binary data to ASCII text using 64 characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, /).

Code Examples

// JavaScript
btoa("api_key=secret");
// Output: "YXBpX2tleT1zZWNyZXQ="

# Python
import base64
base64.b64encode(b"api_key=secret").decode()
# Output: "YXBpX2tleT1zZWNyZXQ="

# Command line
echo -n "api_key=secret" | base64
# Output: YXBpX2tleT1zZWNyZXQ=
