API access tokens allow you to connect third-party applications, tools, or scripts to your BeatPass account. This is primarily for developers or users who want to integrate BeatPass with other services.

​
What Are API Tokens?

API tokens are like passwords for applications:
  • 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
API tokens are intended for developers and advanced integrations. Most users don’t need to create API tokens.

​
Creating an API Token

1

Go to Account Settings

Click your profile avatar → Edit Profile, then scroll to the Developers section.
2

Click Create Token

Click the button to create a new token.
3

Name Your Token

Enter a descriptive name (3-100 characters). Examples:
  • “My Desktop App”
  • “Automation Script”
  • “Personal Project”
4

Save the Token

Click Create to generate your token.
5

Copy Your Token

Important: Copy the token immediately. For security reasons, the full token is only shown once.
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. Click your profile avatar → Edit Profile
  2. Scroll to the Developers section and find the token in your list
  3. Click Delete or the trash icon
  4. Confirm deletion

​
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.

​
Token Format

BeatPass API tokens are secure strings. When you create a token, you receive:
  • Token ID — A public identifier shown in your settings
  • Plain Text Token — The full secret token (shown only once)
Use the plain text token when configuring applications.

​
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. There’s no strict limit, but keep only the tokens you need.
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.
