Settings - API Tokens

Overview

A "API Token" is a combo of an API key and a secret alphanumeric code that allows anybody to read or write to Tulip's database.

Access is controlled via the API key and secret, and can always be turned off at any point. The "secret" will only be displayed once.

The page also links to the official API documentation, which is listed under the route "/apiDocs" and shows different examples of how to use the API. It can be accessed via the link "API Documentation" in the top right of the screen.
