Security token generation

Support Portal  »  Knowledgebase  »  Viewing Article

When embedding Autochartist content, you will be required to generate a security token. The token is of the form:

MD5([UserID]|[AccountType]|[Expiry][SecretKey])

UserID – unique identifier of the user for which you are generating the token
AccountType – 0 = LIVE, 1 = DEMO
Expiry Unix timestamp of when this token will expire
SecretKey – the secret key provided to you during your onboarding process


Notes:

  1. The value of the UserID, AccountType and Expiry parameters need to match the values used in the URL in which the token is being used
  2. Note the ‘|’ (Pipe) character before and after the AccountType parameter


Here is some example code in PHP code:

<?php
$expiryDate = time() + (3 * 24 * 60 * 60);
$userid = “userid”;
$accountType = “0”;
$secretKey = “secretkey”;
$token = md5(“${userid}|${accountType}|${expiryDate}${secretKey}”);
echo $token;
?>



Use this tool to generate a token using information Autochartist provided you.
