Requesting a Temporary Token

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to request a temporary token in Company Administration for Concur Travel.

The Company Request Token Feature Overview

You use the Company Request Token section of the Authentication Administration to generate a request token to get a Company JSON Web Token (JWT).

SAP Concur administrator must have the Web Services Administrator permission or Company Administration permission to access the Company Request Tokens page. If a company administrator needs to use this feature and does not have the proper permissions, they should contact the company’s SAP Concur administrator.

Company request tokens are temporary tokens that expire after 24 hours and can be used to obtain company JWTs. Therefore, you need to provide your App ID in the App ID field and select Submit.
