CRIPT API Token

Abstract

This page shows the steps to acquiring an API Token to connect to the CRIPT platform


The token is needed because we need to authenticate the user before saving any of their data

Token Security

It is highly recommended that you store your API tokens in a safe location and read it into your code Hard-coding API tokens directly into the code can pose security risks, as the token might be exposed if the code is shared or stored in a version control system.

Anyone that has access to your tokens can impersonate you on the CRIPT platform
