API Details
Authorization Request
- API authorization is done by OAuth 2.0.
- Get the API ID and Key values from the AppTrana portal.
- For authentication, enter the API ID in the Client ID and Key in the Client Secret fields.
- After the successful authentication, an access token will be generated by the server and is valid for 24 hours. The user must use the same token for all subsequent requests.
In a website, with one API ID and Key, only one authentication token will be generated and the token is valid for 24 hours. All the users of the website can use the same authentication token to access the Purge API.
