CRM-2 Administrative API

Administrative API is used to manage your domain.

The API calls follow the general RESTful pattern of CRM-2 API. The base URL is https://crm2.opentaps.com/admin/

To access the admin API, your user must have the DOMAIN_CONF permission.

For all requests the clientDomain and authToken parameters are required.

Here are the additional resources available:

Reset (Permanent) Token

Method: POST URL extension: /admin/reset-token Parameter:

• Current permanent auth token for your user
• Client domain

This API expires (deletes) the current permanent auth token, generates a new one, and returns it to you as the result. After this, you must use the new one to access the system. The API will validate that the token you've supplied is for a user of your domain.
