About Token Generation
API Access Tokens enable secure system-to-system communication and are commonly used for:
- External API integrations
- Data synchronization
- Secure authentication of API requests
Use the Search option in the EMGAGE dashboard and search for Token Configuration.
Generating an API Access Token
From the Token Configuration page, click Generate Token and enter a mandatory reason describing the purpose of the token.
Example:
- External Attendance System Integration
- Payroll API Access
The API Access Token remains valid for 1 year from the date of generation.

After successful submission, the token is displayed only once.
Important
Copy and store the token immediately.
For security reasons, the token cannot be retrieved again.
