Description

The functionality provides a system administrator with the ability to generate system-wide (applicable to all packages of Portal) API keys. API key does not have a period of life and needs to be stored on the client side because it shows in APIHUB UI only once after generation, and then user will not see it again.

Start Point

• APIHUB → Global Settinfs

Execution

1. User clicks System Tokens tab in Portal settings.
2. The system opens System Tokens page, which display list of all generated access tokens for the system
   • API to show list of system tokens - GET /api/v4/packages/{packageId}/apiKeys
     • packageId = "*" instead of packageId for system tokens.
3. For each API key the system shows the following information:
   • Name - Unique (per package) API key name.
   • Roles - Role with the set of permissions available for the API key.
   • Create At - Date of API key creation.
   • Create By - User who created API key.
   • Created For - User for which the API was created (owner of API key).

To create new API key:

1. User fills the following fields:
   • Name - required field. API key name must be unique within system. If there is another key with the same name, then the system shows error message "API key with name already exists" after user clicks Generate button.
   • Roles - optional field. Value of this field defines role(s), i.e. set of permissions that will be available for API key. If the user does not specify a role, the role(s) will be the same as the user who generated the token, i.e. system administator.
     • API to get list of available roles for package - GET /api/v2/roles
   • Created For - required field. User who will be the owner of API key shall be selected in this field. By default, the field is predefined with current user.
     • API to get list of users - GET /api/v2/users
2. User fills the required fields and clicks the Generate button.
3. The system generates key and shows it. If user leaves the page or reloads it, the token will never be shown again.
   • API to create system access token - POST /api/v4/packages/{packageId}/apiKeys
   • packageId = "*" instead of packageId for system tokens.
4. User clicks copy icon in "Access token" field.
5. The system copies key in the clipboard.

To deleted API key:

1. User hovers over the row with the required key.
2. The system displays the Delete button.
3. User clicks Delete button.
4. The system deletes appropriate key.
   • API to delete system access token - DELETE /api/v2/packages/{packageId}/apiKeys/{id}
   • id = id of current API key
   • packageId = "*" instead of packageId for system tokens
