API Token Length

[mmcnabb]

Are API tokens always the same length? I’d like to validate user input of API tokens before attempting to authenticate, and wanted to make sure of this before I attempt it. Thanks!

Hi @mmcnabb

Yes, the API tokens are always 42 characters in length. You can use a regular expression like the following to match them ^00[a-zA-Z0-9\-\_]{40}$ .

^00[a-zA-Z0-9-_]{40}$

Thanks, that’s exactly what I was looking to do!
