Polarity Server 5.5.0 (Latest)

About Latest Version

The latest Polarity Server release adds a new and exciting capability for customers that utilize our API. Admins will now be able to create API Tokens to use for our API. Allowing for our API to utilize the token instead of a users username and password for authentication. We also added in the ability for admins to set a time to live on the server to force user re-authentication when they are inactive.

API Tokens

Admins can now easily create an API token to use for authentication to Polarity's API. Tokens act very similar to users where admins will grant access to integrations and channels for the API token to have access to.

TTL Timeouts

Admins can now also set a TTL on the server that will force users to re-authenticate when they are not active within that time frame that is set. The previous default was 30 days.

To set the TTL add in the following parameter to the .env file:

POLARITY_TOKEN_TTL_MINS=

Issues Addressed
