Authenticating APIs

Data Integration API uses Bearer token authentication. This topic covers who can manage API tokens and how to create, view, and delete them.

Administrator access

• Only Account Administrators (Admin users) can manage API tokens.
• Administrator users can add, view, and delete tokens.

Accessing token management

1. In the Data Integration console, select Settings, and then select API Tokens.
2. View the list of existing tokens, which shows each token's name, creation date, creator, and scopes.

Creating a token

1. Click Add Token in the top-right corner.
2. Enter a descriptive token name and select the desired scopes (permissions).
   • Expand each scope to read its description.
3. Click Create to generate the token, or click Cancel to abort.
4. Copy the displayed token immediately.
5. Click Done. The new token appears in the list. Click View to confirm its scopes.

Deleting a token

1. Click the delete icon beside the token you want to delete.
2. Confirm the deletion in the pop up.
   • Once deleted, you cannot recover or reuse a token.
