Site maintainers can use API Token Settings to configure the token generation. The expire_api_token core plugin allows to define the expiration timestamp for a token. A user can create as many tokens as neededįor different uses, and revoke one or multiple tokens at any time.
These areĮncrypted keys that can be generated manually from the UI (User Profile > Manage > API tokens) Starting from CKAN 2.9 the recommended mechanism to use are API tokens. When calling an API function that requires authorization, you mustĪuthenticate yourself by providing an authentication key with your The API uses the same authorizationįunctions and configuration as the web interface, so if a user is authorized toĭo something in the web interface they’ll be authorized to do it via the API as Some API functions require authorization. The old legacy API keys will still work but they will be removed in future versions so it is Starting from CKAN 2.9, API tokens are the preferred way of authenticating API calls. read ()) assert response_dict is True # package_create returns the created package as its result. code = 200 # Use the json module to load CKAN's response into a dictionary. urlopen ( request, data_string ) assert response. add_header ( 'Authorization', '***' ) # Make the HTTP request. # Replace *** with your API key, from your user account on the CKAN site # that you're creating the dataset on.
