# Auth API

### Access Tokens

**UI -** This page shows how to get the access token using the authentication credentials. Masters India supports access-token-based authentication. once a user hits the login button, our API generates an access\_token and a refresh token for a user after validating his credentials.

**API -** This token needs to be passed in the subsequent requests to avoid permission or access issues. To generate the Authorization token by clicking on the Send button. Once the Token Is generated. We need the token in the Authorization header with the prefix **JWT** so the token will be passed as **JWT \<token>**

The Access token key can be used in subsequent requests but expires after 24 hours which must be requested again by re-initiating a login or calling the token-refresh API. The Access token once generated is valid for 24 hours and the refresh token is valid for many days.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.mastersindia.co/masters-india-apis/auth-api.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
