Token sometimes gets invalidated mid-run

[Eirik Morken - Proplan AS]

Greetings 😁

For about a month or two now I have been having issues with some integrations that gets their token invalidated mid-run for no apparent reason. 

For example this is from a run yesterday posting to JournalTransactionV2, failing at post 530 of 550, and all remaining attempts fail.

Response:

{

    "statusCode": 401,

    "headers": {

        "Strict-Transport-Security": "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains",

        "ipp-request-id": "f886bdd5-9833-4259-a81f-e1d28c516659",

        "Transfer-Encoding": "chunked",

        "Date": "Mon, 13 Jun 2022 15:17:42 GMT",

        "Server": "Apache/2.4.25,(Debian)",

        "Content-Type": "application/json",

        "Content-Length": "184"

    },

    "body": {

        "ExceptionType": "IPPException",

        "ExceptionMessage": "Invalid Token",

        "ExceptionFaultCode": "12010",

        "ExceptionMessageID": "12010_04b903ba-5dc2-41f5-b21e-b20ab1d5ec3b",

        "ExceptionDetails": ""

    }

}

I realize I could rewrite all the integrations to ask for a new token if this happens, but I feel like the token system should not be this fragile. There may be a deeper issue that should be resolved, or it may be all my fault for some unknown reason 😁

Hi, 

• How often do you receive invalid token error ?
• Are you renewing it after the error and using the new one ?
• Do you have another integration/s using the same API Client ID and the same Visma.net Financials ERP User ? (Token-Authentication) 

ℹ️ Each consecutively generated token automatically invalidates the recently created one.
(If the request made from the Same CLIENT ID & the Same Visma.Net Financials user for all integrations/company)

Was there a specific introduction date for invalidating all previous tokens when a new one is acquired? We have one customer with that problem.

Then it probably is caused by a test run I triggered requesting a new token! 
 Thank you for the clarification of invalidation 🙂

No problem, Eirik ! 🙂
