When using the Movio Exhibitor API, you will need to authenticate your requests. This is done by obtaining an access token from our token issuer and then using that token to authenticate requests to the Movio Exhibitor API.
When you want to use the Movio Exhibitor API, you will need to obtain
a client_id
and client_secret
from the Movio EQ application. These
credentials are used to obtain a token from the token issuer. The token is
then used to authenticate requests to the Movio Exhibitor API.
⚠️ The
client_id
andclient_secret
should be kept secret and should not be shared with anyone. If you suspect that the credentials have been compromised, then please rotate the credentials in the Movio EQ application.
With your client_id
and client_secret
, you can obtain a token from the
token issuer. The token is used to authenticate requests to the Movio
Exhibitor API. The token is obtained by using the OAuth2
client_credentials
flow. The issued token will usually be valid for 24
hours. This means that you will need to obtain a new token every 24 hours.
⚠️ You should handle the token with care since it can be used to access the API containing your sensitive data. Depending on the token scopes, this might also include the option to delete your data. We'll not be able to blacklist a token if it's compromised, so you should always keep it safe.
The Movio Exhibitor API is designed to ensure that personal data is handled in a secure and compliant manner depending on where in the world you are located. This means that users of the API need to obtain a token from the token issuer located in their region. Depending on the region, the URL for the token issuer will be different. Please see the table below for the token issuer URLs.
Region | Token Issuer URL |
---|---|
EU | https://auth-eu.eq.movio.co/oauth/token |
US | https://auth-us.eq.movio.co/oauth/token |
