Minor API Changes for Anonymous Accounts


If your app is creating anonymous accounts using the Geoloqi API, there is a minor change rolling out to the API in the next couple days.

Previously, access tokens returned from user/create_anon would not expire, so no refresh token was returned. This is changing to more closely match the user/create method.

Now, access tokens will expire after the default amount of time, so you will need to store the refresh token that is returned from the create method. If you have a good reason for not wanting to manage refreshing the access token, you can request a permanent access token by using the account/permanent_token method.

Note: As with access to the create_anon method, your application will need to be pre-approved to access this method. Please email us at [email protected] to request access to this method.
