Managing APIs and tokens in DataMiner Cube

Note

Before you try to execute these procedures, make sure you have the user permissions available under Modules > User-Defined APIs.

Configuring APIs and tokens

1. Go to System Center > User-Defined APIs.

2. Use the buttons below the table to create an API or token, or to edit or delete the selected API or token.

Note

• You can also create an API and tokens in the Automation app. See Creating an API and tokens in DataMiner Automation. This is very similar to the creation in System Center, except you can only configure the APIs and tokens for one specific script at a time.
• It is not possible to delete a token that is in use by an API. You first need to unassign the token from all APIs using it before you can delete it. If you want to block access to a token rapidly, you can disable it instead.

Enabling or disabling API tokens

1. Go to System Center > User-Defined APIs.

2. Right-click the token in the Tokens table and select Enable or Disable.
