Account settings

Note: Learn about the common controls in the Snap settings dialog.
Field/Field set Description
Label

String*
The name for the account. Preferably, update the account name if your project includes more than one account of the same type.

Default value: N/A

Example: gsuite

Access token

String*
An object that describes the security context of SnapLogic. The token includes the identity and privileges of the user account.

The access token is retrieved when setting up the account for the endpoint. The OAuth2 flow is executed at the endpoint and the resulting access token is stored in this property.

Access tokens have limited lifetimes; you must get a new access token after it expires.

Note: If the access token is refreshable, an optional refresh token can be stored. You get a new access token after the expiry of the existing access token if a refresh token was not defined, or if both the access and the refresh token expire.

Default value: N/A

Refresh token

String
The refresh token for the application. The refresh token is retrieved when setting up the account for the endpoint. There, the OAuth2 flow is executed and the resulting refresh token can be stored in this property. If the refresh token is stored, the access token is automatically refreshed before it expires.

Default value: N/A

Access token expiration

Integer
The time (in seconds) until which the access token must be valid.

Default value: N/A

Example: 1578932169
