At a glance: Admins issue API tokens to enable users to access data via the AppsFlyer APIs.
Important!
- To provide a more secure and reliable experience for API usage, the API V1 token is being replaced with the API V2 token. All APIs supported by token V1 are supported by token V2. To ensure a smooth transition, start using the API V2 token. For more details, see the API token changes bulletin.
- To ensure data security, only admins can view the API tokens page. This means that account users and partners have no access to this page.
- Only the account owner (your company's first AppsFlyer user) can retrieve or reset the V1.0 token. All admins can retrieve or reset the V2.0 token.
- Keep your tokens safe as they enable access to your data. Don't publish tokens in public code repositories.
