Authentication to access KSI VISION development tools


Autenticación de API

How do I access the development tools?


To start using the development tools it is necessary to have a Personal Access Token.


This Token facilitates access to development resources related to an account on the KSI VISION platform, being necessary to have the necessary permissions to generate and obtain said Token.


What is a Personal Access Token?

In general terms, a Personal Access Token is the authorization credential. For the Authentication to access KSI VISION development tools (APIs), the token provides permissions to access controlled resources.


The Personal Access Token has the same permissions that limit what an account can do in the application. For example: granting an account permissions to access the information in "Store 1", but not granting it permissions for "Store 2". By default, the token related to this account already has those same limitations.

  1. Go to your KSI system host (For example https://eu.ksivision.com/ in Europe or https://la.ksivision.com/ in America)

  2. Login with your KSI VISION account

  3. Go to My Profile in settings (located on the right in the navigation bar)

  4. Press New API Token and your Personal Access Token will be generated
