How to generate a new embed secret key for a site using API?

Published:

Using the Bold BI^® REST API, generate a new Embed secret key for a particular site instead of manually generating one in the Bold BI^® server when the user has admin access to the site settings or has access to the Embed settings page. Follow the below steps to generate a new Embed secret key using the REST API.

Steps to generate a new Embed secret key:

For authorization purposes, set the header Authorization with bearer <token> and the following reference URL to send the request to the Bold BI^® server.

             https://{yourdomain}/bi/api/site/<site_identifier>/v5.0/settings/embed-secret/generate

For example:

          http://localhost:53623/bi/api/site/site1/v5.0/settings/embed-secret/generate

2. Once the request is sent, if the user has admin access to the site settings or the user has access to the Embed settings page, a new Embed secret key will be generated. Save the newly generated Embed secret key and use it in an embedded application.

Note: This API is to generate a new Embed secret key for a Bold BI^® site. This is not applicable to generate one at UMS (Bold ID) level.
