Tokens
Think of an API token as your simple digital key to use Pulsetic's tools. It proves it's you when you want to get info or make changes. Without it, you can't access things.
Why Tokens are Important
Tokens keep your account safe. You don't need to type your password every time you use the tools.
How Pulsetic Tokens Work
Pulsetic uses tokens to check if it's really you trying to use its features.
When you want to connect, you put your special token in the "Authorization" part of your request – like showing your ID. Pulsetic checks this token to see if you have permission.
Tokens say exactly what you're allowed to do. Some let you see info, others let you change settings. Almost every time you use Pulsetic's tools through code, you'll need a token.
Tokens are safer than passwords. They're like temporary keys you can turn off if needed, without changing your main password. This keeps your account safe and easy to manage.
Pulsetic uses tokens to keep your data safe while letting you use its tools with code.
Step-by-Step: Where to Find Your Pulsetic API Token
- Log in to your Pulsetic account using your web browser.
- Once you're logged in, navigate to the API page.
- On the API page, look for the Add Token button.
- Pulsetic will then generate a unique API token for you. This token will usually be displayed on the screen. Carefully copy this token. It's important to copy the entire token accurately.
Note:
Treat this token like a password and keep it secure.
How to Use Your Token
Put your token in the Authorization part of your requests. It looks like this:
Authorization: your_api_token_here
Do this for all actions that need you to log in.
