Connect today and unlock real-time product data for your website.
Generating Your Access Token
Before utilizing the API below you will need to generate your access token using your email address and password registered with CSC LED.
If you are not yet registered with CSC LED for the purposes of accessing our API, please contact info@csc-led.com and request Inventory API access.
Once you have your login and password, your next step is to generate your access token by sending a POST request to 'https://api.dev2024site.com/api/v1/token' with your registered email ID and password for API access with grant type = password.
Here are some examples for generating your access token:
var client = new RestClient("https://api.dev2024site.com/api/v1/token");
client.Timeout = -1;
var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);
request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "text/plain");
request.AddParameter("text/plain", "grant_type=password&username=youremail@domain.com&password=password", ParameterType.RequestBody);
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
Console.WriteLine(response.Content);If your credentials are correct you will receive a JSON response with a 200 (OK) response code (as shown below).
{
"access_token": "123456789-0123456-cB9GVU9PNCGosw0edOKNPF-9wmGdPwaOvaoR2ehdazR_2Xr_ZxySf2e2oDxiMGeMtGUGRYXjaCWVjinmKrdOxQj6k2Gcr4Bts-g55GOG3s1iLNVSf0wb2_ZApi4WuIBQddUIuJ9v8kYnUoHqap95XO1zCe4xzxQNebQrwss5AHpwRANI1deVaZWPS3dX6s0-5gHdKoO1utFRZAvl36b7HBUjsejWcq1HLZv2dwsjx8xX8M885B7qrfjRO305", // updated access_token
"token_type": "bearer",
"expires_in": 3599,
"refresh_token": "12345678-99ae-4aa6-a278-7aa1c36721c9", // new refresh_token
"userName": "youremail@gmail.com",
"issued": "Mon, 22 Jan 2024 11:26:59 GMT",
"expires": "Mon, 22 Jan 2024 12:26:59 GMT"
}If your information is not correct or up to date, you will receive an error with status 400 (Bad request) as shown below.
{
"error": "invalid_grant",
"error_description": "Either email or password is incorrect"
}Refreshing Your Access Token
To refresh your access token, you will need to send your access_token as "Authorization" in your request header with current refresh_token, and set grant_type to refresh_token as body parameters.
As result, the body parameters of your POST request should now contain
grant_type=refresh_token&refresh_token=123456890-7ae6-4717-94ed-634550d75c62instead of
grant_type=password&username=youremail@domain.com&password=passwordExample:
var client = new RestClient("https://api.dev2024site.com/api/v1/token");
client.Timeout = -1;
var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);
request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "text/plain");
request.AddParameter("text/plain", "grant_type=refresh_token&refresh_token=123456890-7ae6-4717-94ed-634550d75c62",ParameterType.RequestBody);
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
Console.WriteLine(response.Content);If your refresh token request is successful, you will receive an updated access_token and refresh_token. Use these to fetch data from our API or when refreshing your token.
If your request is successful, you will receive response as below:
{
"access_token": "123456789-0123456-cB9GVU9PNCGosw0edOKNPF-9wmGdPwaOvaoR2ehdazR_2Xr_ZxySf2e2oDxiMGeMtGUGRYXjaCWVjinmKrdOxQj6k2Gcr4Bts-g55GOG3s1iLNVSf0wb2_ZApi4WuIBQddUIuJ9v8kYnUoHqap95XO1zCe4xzxQNebQrwss5AHpwRANI1deVaZWPS3dX6s0-5gHdKoO1utFRZAvl36b7HBUjsejWcq1HLZv2dwsjx8xX8M885B7qrfjRO305", // updated access_token

"expires": "Mon, 22 Jan 2024 12:26:59 GMT"
}If the refresh token, provided by you was not correct; you will receive an error as below.
{
"error": "invalid_grant"
}If your access_token or refresh_token has expired or your API access rights have been revoked, you will receive the following error:
{
"Message": "Authorization has been denied for this request."
}“The refresh token expires after 2 hours, while the access token expires after 1 hour. You must keep your refresh_token in order to refresh the access_token, and be able to generate a new access_token and refresh_token. If your refresh token gets expired, you will need to request a new one using your API registered email address and password as explained previously.“
