What is an "active" OAuth token?

An active OAuth token is the token the third party is using to access the Caselle server. If the third party uses an expired OAuth token or an OAuth token not generated by Caselle, the third party will not be able to access information stored on the Caselle server.

 

 

The Active checkbox next to an OAuth token will be "active" for the token's active period. When the token expires, the active checkbox is not selected. You can also change the token's active status by manually deselecting the Active checkbox. 

 

Viewing the "active" OAuth token

1. Open Connect System Management > Security > Setup/Modify Third Party Access.

2. Use the Lookup bar to enter the third party name. Press Enter.

3. Locate Active checkbox that is selected.

This is the active OAuth token.

 

Adding an OAuth token

1. Open Connect System Management > Security > Setup/Modify Third Party Access.

2. Use the Lookup bar to enter the third party name. Press Enter.

3. Click Add OAuth Token.

The OAuth Token is an "open authorization" standard to grant Internet users access to their information on other websites without requiring a password. Examples of companies that use OAuth tokens include Google, Facebook, Microsoft, and Twitter. The OAuth Token grants a third party secure, delegated access to server resources on behalf of Caselle. When you issue an OAuth token to a third party, you grant the third party access to protected information hosted by the Caselle server.
