How to use access token?

tanmaydatta · August 27, 2018, 9:31pm

It is written in the docs: “Access tokens will be used to fetch data requested by users.”
Once I get the access token, how to I use it in the requests? Like do I have to send it in header or query parameter etc?
Please clarify.
Thanks

@tanmaydatta, you refer this link to know the usage of token.

Edit: And you can check the usage of the token from your test application console.

Hi,

You need to set a Authorization header with your call.
format for cURL => -H ‘Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN’
e.g. cURL => -H ‘Authorization: Bearer d2f47d25440fcf4fbd45f8446d7b08cagdbsjarf’
