Update API key via API

[Sondre Moseid]

Hi,

is there a way to update the API key needed to get sensor data?

I got a thingy91 that I can get data from via Rest API. Only thing is that I need to login to my profile and get the new API key. Is there a link where I can do a GET request to update it in my Node-RED project?

best regards,

Sondre

Hi Sondre,

I am not sure if I understand your meaning.

is there a way to update the API key needed to get sensor data?

Only thing is that I need to login to my profile and get the new API key.

Why do you need a new API key? When you generate one API key, you can use it for all your third-party platforms to access nrfcloud through REST API. In which condition, do you need to generate a new one?

Is there a link where I can do a GET request to update it in my Node-RED project?

No, a new API key shouldn't be requested through REST API itself. It is a high risk any people using this API can request a new key and block your access.

Best regards,

The thing is that the API key is only available for 1 hour, correct? So I would need to manually login and update the API key, then copy it into my project..?
