API Tokens

The API Tokens screen lists the API tokens that have been created for External Data Source REST APIs, workflow REST APIs, and Web Services by a LiveCompare Administrator. To access the screen, select the Data/API Tokens folder in the LiveCompare hierarchy.

The API tokens are displayed in a table which has the following columns:

Type

The type of the API token, either ExternalDataSource, RestApi or WebService.

Name

For External Data Source API tokens, this column displays the name of the External Data Source. For workflow REST API tokens and Web Service API tokens, this column displays the workspace and workflow associated with the API token in the format <workspace>/<workflow>.

Token

The associated token.

Expiration

The expiration date for the API token in the format YYYY-MM-DD.

Delete API tokens

To delete one or more API tokens, select the check box next to each table entry and click ‘Delete’. To mark all the API tokens for deletion, select the check box in the column heading.

API tokens that have expired are purged each day by a scheduled task that runs on the LiveCompare server. If the last API token for an External Data Source REST API, workflow REST API or Web Service is deleted, the External Data Source REST API, workflow REST API or Web Service will no longer be authenticated by an API token.
