Sep 3, 2024 — Enhanced token workflow & support for Standard TLS

Enhanced token workflow

The new token workflow provides the following enhancements:

  • Any new tokens are now refreshed automatically by the system. This prevents tokens from expiring and eliminates the need to generate a new token before the existing one expires.
  • Eliminates the need to update tokens inside the edgekv_tokens.js file in your EdgeKV enabled EdgeWorkers code bundle.
  • Provides details about the token such as, the next scheduled refresh date and the latest refresh date when you download an access token. The JWT value is no longer provided when you Download an access token.
  • Lets you create an access token without providing an expiry date in the request. You can still revoke an access token at any time.
  • Lets you manually refresh a token before the automatic refresh occurs.

To learn more, go to the Enhanced token workflow description in this guide.

Support for Standard TLS is now out of beta
