Analytics Token
The Analytics Token is a long-lived access token (1-year validity) that provides read-only access to a defined set of Upstox APIs. Unlike the standard OAuth token flow, no authorization redirect is required — you generate it directly from the Developer Apps page. Because it is strictly read-only, the Analytics Token cannot be used for order placement, order modification, or any other trading operations.
Generate an Analytics Token
Visit the Developer Apps page — Go to the Upstox Developer Apps page and navigate to the Analytics tab.
Click Generate Token — Click the Generate Token button. A confirmation dialog will appear asking you to verify the action.
Confirm the generation — Click Confirm. The token is generated and displayed along with its Name, Token (truncated), Date Created, Expiry Date, and a Revoke button.
Copy the full token — Click the copy icon next to the truncated token to copy the full token value to your clipboard.
- The Analytics Token cannot be used for order placement or order modification.
- Each token has an expiry period of 1 year from the date of generation.
- Only one Analytics Token is permitted per account at a time.
- Do not share this token with anyone. Treat it as a sensitive credential and store it in a secure location.
