Regarding generation of API token

dhvanilshah — Fri, 22 Dec 2023 06:00:43 GMT

Hi everyone,

I was referring the Rest APIs of XIQ cloud: https://extremecloudiq.com/api-docs/api-reference.html.

All the API calls are made with API Token as auth mechanism. It can be generated either through username/password or through Generate API token. If we don't want to user username/password method, is there a way to generate API token from the UI?

I was able to find the reference https://www.google.com/url?q=https://documentation.extremenetworks.com/XIQ/user_guide/GUID-B419B88D-9272-419D-A6F1-962785BA6AC0.shtml&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1703227312393789&usg=AOvVaw3uvu0iXXRybwnVZBkXD22C. But, it requires Client ID, and it is not available right now in the developer portal as it claims. Is the doc latest?

Any guidance would be great.

You will need username and password to create access token.

with the old api's that stop working on the 1st of january 2024 you needed the client id.

Thanks @JonasD_Complit for the clarification.

Is there any way to generate the API token from the UI? Or APIs are the only way?
