API access tokens

Expand the API Access Token bar to request new access tokens or see your active tokens. An API access token is a key that allows the user to send jobs via the Translation API. Each token is unique to each user and helps identify which user has submitted a job.

There are two types of API access tokens available: 

• Sandbox Token — for testing and given to the customer when they sign up for or activate an API account
• Live Token — for production and is manually created by the customer’s account manager

To request a Sandbox token:

1. Click Get Sandbox token.
   
   
   
2. Fill out the API Registration form, and then click Submit.
   
   Your Sandbox token will be generated and will be displayed under the API Access token (Sandbox) dashboard.
   
   
3. To view your sandbox token, select Sandbox from the dropdown list button on the upper-right corner of the page.
   

 To request a Live token:

1. Click Get Live token.
   
   A request will be sent to activate your live access token. Once your live access token is activated, it will be displayed under the API Access Token (Live) dashboard.
   
   
2. To view your live access token, select Live from the dropdown list button on the upper-right corner of the page.
