# Rotate a screen's device token

`POST /v1/screens/{id}/rotate-token`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.brixsignage.com`
- URL: `https://api.brixsignage.com/v1/screens/{id}/rotate-token`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Generate a new access token for a screen's paired device, invalidating the previous one immediately. The new token is returned once in the response and cannot be retrieved afterward.

**Notes.**
- The response carries the NEW device credential. The device holding the old token is disconnected and must be given this token (or re-paired) to keep playing.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Response `200`

Success.

- object
  - `data` object, required
    - `id` string, required
    - `deviceToken` string, required: The new device credential. Shown once; the old token stops working now.
    - `rotatedAt` string, required: ISO-8601 timestamp (UTC).

## Other responses

- `401`: Missing, expired or revoked bearer token.
- `403`: The token lacks the permission this operation needs (see `x-brix-permission`).
- `5XX`: Server error. The body carries a `requestId` to quote to support.
