To create an API access token that doesn't expire, you need to follow certain steps. An API access token is used to authenticate your requests to an API. By default, most API access tokens expire after a certain amount of time for security reasons. However, some API providers allow you to create access tokens that don't expire. Here are the steps:
First, find out if the API provider you're working with allows for non-expiring tokens.
If they do, you'll need to generate the token using their API console or a command-line interface.
When generating the token, look for an option to set the expiration time to "never" or "infinite."
Once you've generated the token, (#) make sure to store it in a safe place and never share it with anyone.
That's it! You now have an API access token that doesn't expire, which you can use to make authenticated requests to the API.
