Accessing APIs

NocoDB APIs can be authorized by either Auth Token or API Token.

Auth Token

Auth Token is a JWT Token generated based on the logged-in user. By default, the token is only valid for 10 hours. However, you can change the value by defining it using environment variable NC_JWT_EXPIRES_IN. If you are passing Auth Token, make sure that the header is called xc-auth.

  • Go to NocoDB Project, click the rightmost button and click Copy Auth Token.
