API Keys
API Keys panel allows you to create a Leon API key directly from the interface in order to obtain or modify different kinds of data from Leon for the purpose of internal operator integrations.
This panel allows to generate a Refresh Token (API Key), which is a special kind of token that can be used to obtain a renewed access token which allows programmatically accessing a protected resource. Access tokens are attached to API requests. More information can be found in the documentation (https://apidoc.leonsoftware.com/).
The token can be generated only by admins in Settings -> API keys page.
