Tokens

Many of the actions made available by the API require a CSRF token. If a token is required, the request body for a particular action will include a token key. POST and PUT requests require tokens, while GET requests do not. Tokens obtained through this method will expire 10 minutes after creation or when they are used, irrespective of whether the request resulted in an error or not.

Obtaining a token

To obtain a token, send a POST request to /v1/tokens.

The response to this request if no errors occur will be:

{
	"token": "$token"
}

Example

import requests

server = 'http://sensly.io/v1%s'
resp = requests.post(server % '/tokens')

print resp.json()
