Obtain a Token

To make requests to our API, a token is required. To retrieve a token, you need to make a request to the /jwt/token endpoint as follows:

API Documentation: Create OAuth2 Token

Request:

curl -i -X POST \
  https://sandbox-api.pathly.io/jwt/token \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "merchant_id": "ec7e1848-dc80-4ab0-8827-dd7fc0737b43",
    "key": "sk_uFAaQdJTDLVg8S7cloi9r1Wpk6430tyB"
  }'

You need to provide your merchant ID and the secret key, both can be found on your developer’s dashboard (https://sandbox.pathly.io/developers).

Response:

{
  "status": "success",
  "data": {
    "token": "i1qxz68gu50zp4i8ceyxqogmq7y0yienm52351c6...",
    "expires_in": 900
  },
  "code": 200,
  "message": "Successful request"
}

You need to store the token which will be used on subsequent requests. All tokens have an expiration time which will be specified in the expires_in and is expressed in seconds from the moment the token was generated.

Publishable and Secret tokens have different scopes and should be used for different scenarios. For server-to-server requests use the Secret token and for requests made from your UI, please use the publishable key.
