Unable to access timeseries via API Exporer

sorin_dumitresc — Mon, 25 Feb 2019 15:46:00 GMT

Hi guys,

I'm having troubles in accessing timeseries via API Explorer. I'm always getting the same Authentication error even thought the token is the right one.

Any idea why?

Hi, make sure you have provided enough access to your token for specific API. See below image

Hi Sorin,

I think the problem is you are using the "Token name" instead of the "Generated Token". See the Request URL in your first screenshot. You should use the Generated Token not the Token name to authorize at the top of the page. That should resolve your issue.

Thanks

Thanks Ugochukwu. Using generated token is the solution.
