Get a Coveo access token

Coveo Relevance Cloud Developer Product Documentation

Whenever you successfully log in to Coveo, the platform automatically generates or refreshes an access token for you. This token is valid for four hours, and is linked to the identity with which you’re authenticated in the platform.

If your identity has access to a Coveo organization, you can use this token to authenticate calls to any of the Coveo REST API operations for which your identity has the required privileges in this organization.

To get your Coveo access token:

  1. In your web browser, open the developer tools.

  2. Log in to Coveo.

  3. In the developer tools, typically under the Storage or Application tab, locate and inspect the https://platform.cloud.coveo.com cookie.

    In this cookie, the access_token field value is your Coveo access token.
