Authentication

In order to access QuickBlox APIs you need to authenticate your application with QuickBlox server.
A token-based authentication should be used to provide secure access to QuickBlox APIs.
The token-based authentication works by ensuring that each request to the server contains a token that is verified by the server for the authenticity. When the authenticity is verified, the server responds to the request.

There are two types of tokens: application session token and user session token.
The application session token is limited to read-only permissions preventing changes to application data while the user session token is not restricted in permissions and allows for making edits to application data.

You can read more information on our official documentation.
