Cluster Authorization Token

The cluster authorization token is used to verify identities between clusters that have been deployed in phases as well as HTTP-based log collectors. Each peer cluster in a query pool must have its own token. You can set expiration dates during token creation or manually revoke tokens at any time.

To generate a token:

  1. Navigate to Settings > Core > Admin Operations > Cluster Authorization Token.

    The Cluster Authorization Token page is displayed.

  2. In the Cluster Authorization Token page, click A blue circle with a white plus sign. to open the Setup Token dialog box.

  3. Enter a Token Name, and then select an Expiry Date.

    Important

    Token names can contain only letters, numbers, and spaces.

  4. Select the Default Roles for the token.

  5. Click Add Token.

    Use this generated file to allow your APIs to authenticate by token. Ensure that your API uses ExaAuthToken in its requests. For curl clients, the request structure resembles the following:

    curl -H "ExaAuthToken:<generated_token>" https://<external_host>:<api_port>/<api_request_path>
