API Authentication Tokens
Insider provides APIs to support your business in various ways. You can use either one or more of these APIs depending on your use cases.
Insider uses authentication to validate and process the incoming API calls. An API key is a unique code used to authenticate the API call where you are requesting a response.
For various APIs, you can generate the API keys in the following methods:
- Generate API Key: Generates API keys for several APIs
- Web Push Integration Settings: Generates an API key for the web push requests
- Mobile App Integration Settings: Generates an API key for the mobile app requests

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use the same token for all UCD APIs?
A: Yes, you can use the same token in all UCD APIs. However, depending on your product package, you may not be able to use the Upsert User Data API.
Q: Can I have multiple tokens at the same time?
A: Yes, you can multiple tokens at the same time. Only UCD API token is limited to maximum 2 tokens. If you want to generate new tokens, you need to delete at least 1 of the previously generated tokens.
Q: Can all users generate the UCD tokens?
A: No, only the users with Manage Users permission can generate tokens. Users with other permissions are not allowed to complete this operation.
Q: Can all users delete the previously generated UCD tokens?
A: No, only the users with Manage Users permission can delete tokens. Users with other permissions are not allowed to complete this operation
Q: I have lost my token, and because of hashing on the listing page, I can’t access it fully. Can I get the same token again?
A: No, for security reasons the generated tokens are fully visible only once after being generated. From that point, you will not be able to see the token fully. We highly recommend noting the generated token down or you can generate a new token for your project.
