API Tokens
API tokens allow external applications and scripts to authenticate with the Towerops REST and GraphQL APIs. Each token is scoped to an organization and can be managed from your user settings.
Creating a Token
- Go to User Settings → API Tokens
- Click "Create API Token"
- Give the token a descriptive name (e.g., "Grafana Integration")
- Copy the token immediately — it will only be shown once
Using a Token
Include the token in the
Authorization
header:
Authorization: Bearer your-api-token-here
Security Best Practices
- Create separate tokens for each integration — don't reuse tokens across services
- Revoke tokens you no longer need
- Never commit tokens to version control
- Store tokens in environment variables or a secrets manager
