Token Logins

Token logins allow users access to content on our website(s) without the need to login. This is a great feature, but it only allows access to the one page the link sends them to.

There are two different ways to allowing access using a token, anonymous access and user access. Both of these methods are explained in more detail below.

Anonymous Access

Anonymous access will allow anyone who uses the link to view the content, but it will not be associated with their profile.

To get the token login link for anonymous access you need to grab the token for a video. To do this, edit a video and go to Publishing tab make sure you're on the Local sub tab.

On this tab there should be a field labelled Page Access Token, this is the token you need. But you don't need to copy this, instead you can just press the button labelled Get link (only need to do this if the link isn't already showing), then copy the whole link to use where ever you need to.

Please note this token is unique for each video, so you cannot use the token from one video to access another.

Anonymous token link construction

If you need to manually construct the link for whatever reason, it should like this:
[video ul] + ? + access=[page_access_token]
* replace the bits in the square brackets with their actual counterparts.

User Token Access

User Token Access will let a user watch a video without logging in and add the view to their CPD Statement. They'll only be able to watch that one video and no other content without logging in.

To set up a link allowing a User access you'll need their User Token. This can be obtained from a registrant list download for something like a live event, or from the data team.

Once you have the User Token you need to grab the link from the Anonymous Access section above for the appropriate video and add the following to the end of the link: &UT=[user_token].

The complete link should look something like this: https://www.assettv.co.za/video/liability-driven-investing-masterclass?access=[page_access_token]&UT=[user_token]
