allow authorized users to connect third-party applications, tools, or scripts to their BeatPass account. API access is invite-only — it must be granted by the BeatPass team before you can generate tokens.
API access is invite-only. Developer tokens are granted on a case-by-case basis. To request access, contact contact@beatpass.ca. See Authentication for details.

​
What Are API Tokens?

API tokens are like passwords for apps:
  • They allow external programs to access your BeatPass account
  • Each token has a name so you can identify what it’s used for
  • Tokens can be deleted without affecting your main password
The Developers section only appears in account settings when API access has been enabled for your account.

​
Creating an API Token

1

Go to Account Settings

Open the Account Settings page, then open Developers.
2

Click Create Token

Click Create token.
3

Name Your Token

In Create new token, enter a Token name. BeatPass currently requires 3 to 100 characters.
4

Save the Token

Click Create to generate your token.
5

Copy Your Token

Copy the token immediately. BeatPass only shows the full token once. When you are done, click Done.
The complete token is only displayed once when created. Copy and store it securely. If you lose it, you’ll need to create a new token.

Token Security

​
Best Practices

  • Keep tokens secret — Never share tokens publicly or commit them to code repositories
  • Use descriptive names — Name tokens by their use so you know what to revoke later
  • Revoke unused tokens — Delete tokens you no longer need
  • Rotate periodically — Consider creating new tokens and deleting old ones regularly

​
What Tokens Can Do

Tokens provide access to your account through the BeatPass API. The specific permissions depend on your account type and the API endpoints used.

​
Deleting API Tokens

If you no longer need a token or suspect it’s compromised:
  1. Open the Account Settings page
  2. Open Developers and find the token in your list
  3. Click Delete
  4. Confirm the Delete token? prompt

​
Effects of Deletion

  • The token stops working immediately
  • Any applications using that token will lose access
  • You cannot recover a deleted token (create a new one instead)
If you’re not sure which token an application is using, create a new one with a clear name and update the application, then delete the old tokens.

​
Managing Multiple Tokens

You can create multiple tokens for different purposes:
Token NameUse Case
”Mobile App”Your personal mobile integration
”Analytics Tool”Third-party analytics service
”Backup Script”Automated backup program
This way, if one token is compromised, you can revoke just that one without affecting other integrations.

​
Common Questions

No. For security, the full token is only shown once when created. You’ll need to create a new token.
You can create multiple tokens. Keep only the ones you need so the list stays easy to manage.
No. API tokens are separate from your login session. Deleting a token only affects applications using that specific token.
Delete the token immediately in your settings. Then create a new one and update any legitimate applications that need access.
