Access Token Configuration

The access token is essential for connecting CaiGen Note Snap with your CaiGen Note server. This guide will help you set up and use your access token properly.

​
Getting Started

​
1. Accessing the Token

  • Open CaiGen Note Snap settings from the system tray
  • Navigate to the “Settings” section
  • Locate the “CaiGen Note Token” field

​
2. Token Format

Your access token will be in JWT format, starting with eyJ.... This token is used to authenticate your requests to the CaiGen Note server.

​
Configuration Steps

  1. Copy the Token
    • The token will be displayed in the settings panel
    • Copy the entire token string carefully
    • Make sure not to include any extra spaces
  2. Verify Connection
    • After entering the token, CaiGen Note Snap will automatically test the connection
    • A successful connection will allow you to start using the application
    • If connection fails, verify the token is entered correctly

​
API Testing

If you want to test the API directly, you can use the following cURL command: 
curl -X 'POST' 'http://127.0.0.1:1111/api/v1/note/upsert' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE' \
-d '{
  "content": "🎉 Hello, CaiGen Note! --send from api",
  "type": 0
}'

​
Security Best Practices

  1. Token Protection
    • Keep your token secure and private
    • Don’t share your token with others
    • Regenerate token if you suspect it’s compromised
  2. Token Expiration
    • Tokens may expire after a certain period
    • If you experience authentication issues, try generating a new token

​
Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues:
  1. Ensure the token is copied completely
  2. Check if the CaiGen Note server is running
  3. Verify your network connection
  4. Try regenerating a new token
