Find Your Organization Label and access tokens

This short article will show you how to locate the organization label/access token for your active organization. This is necessary if you’re working with the API or if you need to find the unique name for your organization.

Your organization’s label is usually different from its display name, which is displayed in the top-left of the Ardoq app. To locate the label, open the “Your Account settings" under Preferences.

Go to "API and Tokens"

To generate a new access token, please give a description and click create. This gives you a new unique token you need to copy.

Best practice is to delete the access token after you are finished using it.


Easy!

Note: The recommended practice is to create an API user account (DUMMY USER) in your email server and restrict the user permissions by only providing the necessary permissions(reader/writer) and then create the tokens as that user which will be valid for 60 days from the last usage. Once a token is generated, save it and no longer use this account to login. This way you can indirectly control the API tokens across the org.
