Create a Profiles API Token

The ability to create a Profiles API token is based on your folder permissions.

This topic includes:

Name Your New Token

  1. Open TD Console.
  2. Navigate to Audience Studio and select a segment.
  3. Select a folder.
  4. Select Create New.
  5. Select Profiles API Token.

  1. Enter a name for your token and optionally enter a description. Select Next.

Configure the Token

The name and description carry over from when you named the token. You can make changes.

  1. Enter a Lookup Key. A Lookup Key is a column with a unique value inside the Parent segment. This key identifies the correct profile.

The lookup key update will take effect once the token workflow finishes. When using td_global_id as the lookup key, the Profiles API retrieves the lookup value from the browser cookie instead of the API request's query param. For testing or verification purposes outside of a browser (eg, Postman), use a different column to pass in the lookup value manually.

  1. (Optional) Enter a maximum of five attributes.

Choose one of the following:

  • Select Next to continue and add segments.
  • Select Create to configure the token. (You can add segments later if you want.)

Add Segments to the Token

  1. Choose one of the following:
  • After you configure your token, select Next.
  • Navigate to Audience Studio > Folder > Profiles API Token.

  1. Add up to 15 Segments to your Profiles API Token.

  1. Select Save.
