• Revoke an API Token

General

You need to have the Access Meisterplan APIs and Connect External Applications right to manage API tokens.

API tokens are secure, digital access keys that allow different software systems to communicate with each other safely. When Meisterplan needs to connect to another tool, or when another tool needs to access Meisterplan, an API token ensures that only authorized people or applications can do so.

API tokens are user-specific. Each token only allows access to data that the user creating the token can access.

To generate a new API token, follow these steps:

1. In the top right corner of Meisterplan, click your profile picture and select My Profile:
