Avaza API – Authentication with Personal Access Tokens

Personal Access Tokens are for your developers to conveniently authenticate one-off apps and scripts. These are typically simple applications for your internal company use, and run under the permission of the specific Admin team member who created the token.

Once created, the token can immediately be used for making API calls. The token should be added to the Authorization http header in api requests, in the format: “Authorization: Bearer {YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE}”.

Avaza also supports OAuth2 authentication method that provides additional flexibility and security. You can learn more about it by following this link.

In order to create a new Personal Access Token navigate to
Settings > Manage Developer Apps and then click “Add Personal Access Token” button.
