Hello Meraki Community!
We are thrilled to announce that OAuth 2.0 is now available for all Meraki API users! This marks a significant milestone in enhancing security, flexibility, and control for your integrations with Meraki.
Why OAuth 2.0?
Enhanced Security: OAuth 2.0 replaces static API keys with short-lived access tokens, reducing the risk of unauthorized access and ensuring your integrations are secure.
Granular Access Control: Define precise scopes for your applications, granting only the permissions they need - nothing more, nothing less.
Seamless Token Management: Enjoy automatic token expiration and the ability to refresh tokens effortlessly, keeping your integrations running smoothly without manual intervention.
Improved Traceability: Each API request is tied to a specific application, simplifying auditing and helping you maintain accountability and compliance.
Get Started Today!
We encourage all developers and integration partners to explore our updated OAuth 2.0 documentation and start integrating these powerful features into your applications. We’ll even throw in a sample Python script to help you get started.
Whether you’re enhancing existing integrations or developing new ones, OAuth 2.0 provides the robust foundation you need.
When is OAuth an overkill?
“With great power comes great responsibility” or, in the case of OAuth, a bit of overhead.
Our current OAuth 2.0 implementation is designed for backend to backend integrations, where your backend can manage and refresh OAuth tokens when needed as well as provide an accessible redirection URL.
If you’re looking to run a small ad-hoc script - it might be an overkill.
Thank you for being part of the community, happy coding, and keep the feedback coming!
