Public API - Refresh Token
This document will walk you through generating an API Refresh token which you can use to call the Squadcast Public API.
The Squadcast Public API provides you with the ability to access certain Squadcast features within your account, allowing you to configure users, services, grouping incidents and more to help further reduce noise and speed up response times.
Note:
We have recently changed the flow of generating a refresh token to access the Squadcast API.
In order to use the Squadcast API, you will need to first generate a Refresh token from the Squadcast Web App by following the steps below.
From Your Profile Page
Move over to the
My Profile
page from the top right corner of your screen.In the next window, click on the
Generate New Token
button from theAPI Refresh Token
section.A Refresh token will be generated and displayed. You can use this to generate the Refresh Token and use it to access our public APIs as given in the Squadcast API documentation.
You can also Revoke the Refresh token and the associated Access Tokens will also get revoked.
Please keep your Refresh Token as safe as your Password.
For more details regarding how to use the Squadcast Public APIs, please refer to the Squadcast API Documentation.
