JWT Token Authentication

The SmarterProctoring API uses JWT (JSON Web Token) authentication. Authentication is performed by including a valid JWT token in the token header of your requests.

​
Obtaining a Token

To obtain a JWT token, you’ll need to contact your SmarterProctoring account manager. The token will be provisioned based on your account’s permissions and access levels.

​
Token Security

  • Keep your JWT token secure and do not share it in public repositories or client-side code
  • Tokens have an expiration time, after which they will no longer be valid
  • If your token is compromised, contact your SmarterProctoring account manager immediately to have it revoked
