Generate OAuth Bearer Token

You must generate the OAuth bearer token as part of setting up Experience Insights. An OAuth bearer token allows you to authenticate to the ThousandEyes API using a token without providing a username.

For information about the ThousandEyes integration with Experience Insights, see About Experience Insights.

Prerequisites

  • A ThousandEyes account with organization admin role.

Procedure

  1. Open the welcome email from ThousandEyes and configure your login.
  2. Log into ThousandEyes.
  3. Navigate to: Account Settings > Users and Roles.
  1. In the User API Tokens section, in the OAuth Bearer Token field, click Create.

Result: In the OAuth Bearer Token window, the token displays.

  1. Click Copy.
  2. Click Got it.

Result: The OAuth bearer token is copied to your clipboard. Save the token because you will need to paste it when you set up Experience Insights.
