Create an API token

Black Duck does not expose a public multi-tenant API — each customer has
their own server URL and issues its own tokens.

1

Find your Server URL

Note the base URL of your Black Duck instance — this is the Server URL value.

Format: https://{subdomain}.blackduck.com
Example: https://acme.blackduck.com

2

Open your account menu

Sign in to your Black Duck instance, then select your username in the top right.

3

Create an Access Token

Select Access Tokens, then Create New Token. Choose the scopes needed and copy the token — this is the API Token value, shown only once.
