Release notes for the update July, 21 2024

Update Version 4.1.202407192016

New Features

Added API Tokens Management

Added the option to manage API tokens and to generate JWT tokens to authenticate and authorize external scripts and application to access data and processes of the application server.

API token represents an authentication and an authorization mechanism for 3rd party scripts and applications to communicate with the system server using its REST API. After created in the system, an API token generates a unique string signed by the tenant signature key in a standard JSON Web Token (JWT) format that that defines a compact and self-contained way for securely transmitting information from external parties to the system server.

To ensure access security, an API token encapsulates information about the user, expiration time and IP address filter for the caller location. It is signed by the tenant signature keys and could be disabled on the server side.
