Generate API Token

The Whatsbot REST API module requires an API token to authenticate and perform operations. Below are the steps to generate and save the API token.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Access the Whatsbot API Token Page:

   • Navigate to the Whatsbot API module in your Perfex CRM instance.
   • You should see a screen with the title Whatsbotapi and an input field labeled Whatsbot API Token.

2. Generate a New API Token:

   • Click on the Generate Token button on the right side of the input field.
   • A new token will be automatically generated and displayed in the input field.
   • The API token will appear as a long string of alphanumeric characters (e.g., h4BwU34qju0Dzjtv...).

   

3. Copy the Token:

   • If you want to copy the token for later use, click on the copy icon (clipboard icon) next to the token input field.
   • This will copy the token to your clipboard for use in API requests.

4. Save the Token:

   • After generating and copying the token, click on the Save Settings button at the bottom right of the page to store the API token securely.
   • Saving the token ensures it can be used for future API calls without needing to regenerate it.

5. Token Usage:

   • Use the generated API token in your requests to authenticate against the Whatsbot REST API.
   • Ensure that you keep this token secure, as it provides access to your Whatsbot API.
