I’ve been enjoying some great API token functionality on other platforms which I’d love to see on FME Flow.
- A notification before a token is due to expire. When configuring an api token I can specify an expiry date, however, without knowing how long the token is needed I tend to put in something soonish. Of course the application eventually breaks because I forgot to extend the life of the token. A reminder that a token is due to expire in 7 days or so would be really nice.
If I don’t want an application to break I need to set this expiry time quite far in the future, e.g., a number of years. In this case if an application eventually stops being used then there is still an active token which I’d like to avoid. Setting shorter times coupled with a reminder would be much better. - A “Last Used” field to indicate the last time a token was used. This helps to identify tokens which are no longer used so they can be removed/disabled.
These two features would be really nice to have. At the moment I would need to set up my own notification service to check if a token is due to expire. And at the moment I can’t tell when a token was last used.
