Viewing Access Token Details
API keys and OAuth 2.0 access tokens allow you to use an API published in CentraSite or API Portal gateway, and grant access to data which is restricted or secured to your user account.
An API key or OAuth access token acts as a type of secret key or secret token. As long as the consumer is in possession of this access token, the consumer can access both the publicly available and secured data of the API. A provider can revoke this access token at any time. Furthermore, all access tokens expire after the specified days. Once the access token is revoked or has expired, the user can access only the publicly available data.
In CentraSite, the default expiry limit for API keys is unlimited.
You can view details of API keys and OAuth 2.0 access tokens in the following ways:
Through the email notification messages that were auto-generated by
CentraSite.
Through the
Virtual Service Details page.
Through the
User Preferences page.
