Missing documentation for `access_token`

Open GamePlayer-8 opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Good morning,

How do I configure the access token / secret key in order to restrict the usage of specific captchas?

Website mcaptcha.org/docs/terminology/access-token gives me 404 error.

Hello again o/

I've used “access token” and “authorization token” inconsistently. I'll change all instances of “access token” to “authorization token”.

The secret key is a completely different thing, it's used for [authentication while trying to check the validity of the authorization token (step 2 under "configure backend to authenticate CAPTCHA tokens).

I'm not sure if this helps. If not, please elaborate what you are trying to do :)

Oki, I've located the secret key in the settings (wasn't noticed the comment in the code section in the docs).

Although is there going to be an option to specify different secret keys for each captcha?

No, secret is account-wide at this moment.

aside: all instances of “access token” are replaced with “authorization token” with links to the glossary entry.
