Get Action Token


Description: Generates a temporary action token that is specific to one type of request specified by the parameter type. Action Token is to be used in place of a session token in subsequent API requests. Because the session token lasts only 10 minutes, and the session token version 2 requires a signature for every call, Action Token cannot be used in certain operations. The Action Token can then be sent in lieu of the session token for authentication. It can also be destroyed after its use by calling user/destroy_action_token.

Required Parameters:

  • session_token : A type 1 or type 2 session token. (Type 2 will require a call signature).
  • type : The type of action to be performed. Options are 'image' or 'upload'.

Relative Parameters:
  • signature : This is the call signature that is required to authenticate a type 2 session token transaction.

Optional Parameters:
  • lifespan : The number of minutes before the action token should be destroyed. Defaults to 1. 24-hour limit.
  • response_format : 'xml' or 'json' (default 'xml')
