πŸ“˜

This method is only supported for existing legacy integrations. For all new integrations, please use the OAuth-based method as explained in the section, "Accessing APIs".

The short-lived tokens expire after 60 minutes. To generate the short-lived tokens, Invoke the Get Access Token API using API User ID and API Secret Key 1/ API Secret Key 2 as username and password respectively. It returns a bearer token that is used to access all other APIs. The bearer token is valid for 60 minutes. A new token is returned whenever the Get Access Token API is accessed. All the previously returned tokens are also valid till the life of their tokens which is 60 minutes from their generation time.

How to use the Access token using the Postman
