Use this header information for these eligibility operations unless otherwise noted: Eligibility, Eligibility EDI, and Eligibility Views. We use two standard HTTP headers in our API requests: Authorization
and Content-Type
.
The API request uses the following header format:
```javascript
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer <Your-Access-Token>
```
Content-Type
header always defaults toapplication/json
Bearer
authorization token in theAuthorization
header
Get an authorization token by making a request Generate authorization token.
BEARER TOKEN LIFESPAN
The lifespan of a Bearer token is one hour (3600 seconds) for both sandbox and production environments.
We recommend automating transactions to use the tokens generated over the token lifespan. Obtaining tokens for each transaction is less efficient and does not improve the security criteria for any transactions.
