3. Generate a Token For a New Password

Generate a token using the conformation code from email

Introduction

This POST endpoint enables you to generate a token using the confirmation code received during the first step of the password reset process.

There are three required parameters that must be provided in the request:

1. Et-App-Key (header). This is the unique key of your app that identifies your app when communicating with our service. Contact your administrator to get this key.

2. API version (path). Unless necessary, leave it at "1.0".

3. resource (body). This is a JSON file that contains the confirmation code from the email.

Request Body

Parameter	Description
Code	This is the confirmation code from the following email:

{
  "Code": "741175"
}

Here's the final template for this API request:

POST apiURL/v1.0/users/password/reset/code

Response

In response to this API request, you will receive a JSON file either confirming successful token generation or enumerating errors that occurred in the process.

{
  "Model": "ba6b8cac-6738-4434-bd26-825db020a05c",
  "Errors": [],
  "IsSucceed": true
}

The Model parameter contains the token that must be provided in the final step of the password reset process.

Common Mistakes

Here are some of the common mistakes that developers make when attempting to generate a token for password reset.

Failing to Specify the Et-App-Key Parameter

If you specify the wrong Et-App-Key parameter or fail to include it in the header altogether, you'll get the following error:

{
    "error": "Application key is not defined or does not exist"
}
