Manage API Tokens

API tokens use REST APIs to authenticate users when they try to retrieve information from Juniper Mist Routing Assurance. By using API tokens, users can avoid authentication for each request they make. An API token provides visibility into the resources accessed by a user, enabling you to have better control over access to resources.

Table 1 lists the parameters for configuring API tokens.
