Hi ya,

Is there a easy way to to extend the token life OR turn off checking it?

Cheers J

Hey, right now tokens are not eternal and will always have a lifetime.

But you can set the token life via config with tokenLife and you can use autoRefreshLifetime to refresh its life with every successful request.

So you could give the token a life of 10 days or 100 years if you wanted.

Thanks so much! So that means:

RESTfulAPI_TokenAuthenticator: tokenOwnerClass: 'Member' tokenLife: 3153600000 autoRefreshLifetime: true

should this do the trick? thats 100 years in seconds I think?

That would do it. Once the token is first generated you have 100 years to use it. :)
