Technical accounts

\n

Technical accounts allow applications and automated processes to access the Cloudogu EcoSystem without using an employee's personal account. One example is a service that regularly retrieves data from a Dogu.

\n

Each technical account has an access token. You store this token in the application that will use the account. You decide which Dogus the token can access and how long it remains valid.

\n

Opening the overview

\n

Sign in to the Cloudogu EcoSystem with an account that has manager permissions. Open User Management from the Warp menu and select Technical accounts.

\n

The overview lists existing technical accounts with their display name, status, creation date, and expiry date. This lets you see which tokens are still active and which have expired. Click a display name to view the account details and the Dogus it can access.

\n

\n \n \n

\n

The full access token is displayed only once. Copy it before closing the dialog. You cannot view it again later in the account details.

\n

Renewing the access token

\n

Renew the token when it is about to expire or when you need a new token for the existing account. The technical account and its selection of permitted Dogus remain unchanged.

\n
    \n
  1. Open the Technical accounts overview.
    2. \n
  2. Click the display name of the account you want to manage.
    3. \n
  3. In the Manage technical account section, select a new validity period under New token expires in, for example 30 days. If the current token is still active and has an expiry date, you can also select that existing expiry date.
    4. \n
  4. Click Renew token.
    5. \n
  5. Copy the newly displayed token and store it securely. This token is also displayed only once.
    6. \n
  6. Replace the previous token in all applications that use this technical account.
    7. \n
\n

The old token becomes invalid as soon as renewal succeeds. Plan to update the credentials in the affected applications immediately afterwards. Until then, these applications can no longer access the system using the old token.

\n

Even if a token has already expired, you can select a new validity period in the account details and generate a new token.
