Api Authentication

Refresh existing authentication

Access Refresh

Once authenticated, an issued API Access Token will expire after 30 minutes.

This authenticated endpoint will "refresh" the access token by issuing a new jwt token with an extended expiration.

This endpoint refreshes only access tokens that were issued from a StackHawk API Key via the /login route. A browser session (APPLICATION) token obtained by signing in to the StackHawk web app cannot be refreshed here; presenting one returns 401 Unauthorized. Browser sessions are refreshed by the web app itself.

For best practices, use the /refresh-token route for refreshing authentication access to extend the API session.
