Issue/Introduction

This document will explain how to reset the API Token.

Symptoms:
You have lost or can not remember what the API Token is for your Hosted NSX Analyst Product.

Cause

We do not have a way to look up the original API Token provided to you when you received your license for the Hosted NSX Analyst product. If you reset API Token, the original Token will no longer be valid. Users using this Token must update existing API calls. The API Key remains unchanged and is the License Key for the product.

Resolution

Find the License page in your Portal.

Admin → Licensing

Be sure to click on the Reset API token icon for the appropriate Hosted license - Lastline Analyst API Hosted.


 

Workaround:
Reset the API Token from the Portal UI.

Impact/Risks:
You can not make API calls without a valid API Token and API Key.
