access token expiration lengthen

Question

Hello I am trying to buld a post api from wordpress to adobe campaign and I am wondering how to extend the access token expiry length. Having it expire after86399998 seconds isn't really sustainable so I need it to last longer. I have seen another post in 2019 that it can't be extended in analytics but is that still the case (https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/adobe-analytics-questions/jwt-access-token-how-can-i-change-the-expiration/qaq-p/324806)? Alternavitely is there another option that I can use other than the access token? I am currently testing in postman Any advice would be greatly appreciated Cheers

Hi, You can get a JWT generation token python script from Adobe Support and update the expiry_time (see screenshot below) Thanks,David

Hi @seanie2,

Access tokens are by default set to valid for 24hours. You can't change/extend expiry of access token.

In addition JWT Tokens are an open standard. Using a standard or open source library along with their private key to programmatically generate a JWT tokens. They then use their own generated JWT token to authenticate with adobe.io and exchange it for an API access token to use in subsequent calls to interact with adobe campaign.

You can use libraries listed here to setup token exchange programmatically.
