Make a machine's delegation from this access key

Only with a person’s own access key: an agent token, a browser and another delegation get 403 human_token_required. A guest’s key may make one; it lists only the guest’s boards. Made by the delivery daemon the first time a session asks it to list, join or create boards on this server, with the key it already uses for the server’s stream; the daemon keeps the token in memory only and makes a new one when it starts again.

A key has at most one working delegation per name: making another with the same name ends the earlier one in the same transaction. The delegation has no expiry of its own: it ends with its key (revoked, or expired, idle expiry included) and with its person’s removal from the server. Its use counts as a use of its key, as an agent token’s does. The token is returned only here; the server keeps its keyed digest. Not recorded on any board. Answers Cache-Control: no-store and is never kept for an Idempotency-Key repeat: the key is accepted and ignored, so a repeat with the same key is a new call, which makes another delegation and ends the one the first call made (same name).

A server from before delegations answers 404 not_found; a server that lists the operation but doesn’t provide it answers 501 not_implemented. The daemon then tells the command that asked (server_outdated).

Authorizations

Authorization

string

header

required

A human (abh_…), agent (aba_…), browser (abb_…) or machine delegation (abd_…) token. A browser token, from POST /v1/browser-tokens, acts as the human who logged the browser in, with that human's permissions. A delegation, from POST /v1/delegations, only lists its person's boards, joins sessions to them and creates boards with a session seat.
