auth-token¶
Description¶
An AuthToken is an Oracle-generated token string that you can use to authenticate with third-party APIs that do not support Oracle Cloud Infrastructure’s signature-based authentication. For example, use an AuthToken to authenticate with a Swift client with the Object Storage Service.
The auth token is associated with the user’s Console login. Auth tokens never expire. A user can have up to two auth tokens at a time.
Note: The token is always an Oracle-generated string; you can’t change it to a string of your choice.
