Updating Access Tokens

This page describes how to update an access token to be configured for Directory Sync, Password Sync, and IIJ ID Service APIs.

Each access token has an expiration date.If an access token has expired, it can no longer be synchronized with and connected to the IIJ ID Service.

When checking the expiration date of an access token or updating an access token, follow the procedure below to update it.

[ Reference ]

As the expiration date of an access token approaches, an email that informs the user of the fact that the expiration date is approaching is sent to the user's notification email address.
If an access token that expires within 24 hours is created, such an email may not be sent.
