hello all,
i am developing my own api to retrieve info from web service.
problem is that each time i send a request, it checks for authentication in soap header, and it consumes 2 tokens for one method.
i ahve to made lots of calls to api methods to retrieve all the information. i have 200 tokens inly, but that are not sufficient i think.
is there any way by which we can escape token consumption on method calls?
what exactly is the purpose of tokens?
can any one suggest how to minimize use of tokens?
regards
tez
Tokens are licensed to measure consumption
Tez,
Tokens are the means by which we measure consumption of APIs. You get 2,000 tokens per month per login company for free. If you intend to consume more API calls than than, you can license more through purchasing a Genesis Integration Package. Please reach out to your account manager for details.
Cheers,
Brent
Genesis Integration Package
also , i will be thankful if you provide me information on how many tokens are consumed per API call
thanks

best regards

API Tokens
API calls consume 1 token a call except for DataWarehouse (segment) APIs which consume 10 a piece. The reason for that is because they pull so much data in once call.
Integration packages come in 3 different sizes with monthly token allotments of 30,000, 100,000, and 250,000.
Your account manager can give you more detail around pricing.
Thanks!
