Authorization

DEPRECATION NOTICE

You can continue using standard Bearer Token authentication for the time being. However, the use of static auth tokens will be deprecated in the future. Please look at our OAuth2 Implementation to learn how to properly authenticate requests in the future.

Most Voxtelesys REST API endpoints require authentication using HTTP Bearer authentication.

Bearer authentication (also called token authentication) is an HTTP authentication scheme that involves security tokens called bearer tokens. The name “Bearer authentication” can be understood as “give access to the bearer of this token.” The client must send this token in the Authorization header when making requests to protected resources:

Authorization: Bearer <token>

The Bearer authentication scheme was originally created as part of OAuth 2.0 in RFC 6750, but can be used on its own. Similarly to Basic authentication, Bearer authentication should only be used over HTTPS (SSL).

Personal Token

Your personal token(s) can be found in the Voxtelesys Portal.
