Install tokens
There are two types of install tokens used in Keystrike deployments:
- Organization-wide Install Token Used for mass deployment of Keystrike Clients and Terminators.
- Single-use Install Token for Invitations Distributed to individual users through invitations for Client setup.
The purpose of the Install token is to enhance security by ensuring that only authorized uers are installing the software. This helps prevent unauthorized distribution and use.
The organization-wide install token is designed to be a short lived. The current token can be found in the admin panel on the Setups & Installers page. It can be regenerated and once a new one is generated the previous one becomes invalid. The token is only used for authorizing the installation so any installation already made with previous tokens is unaffected when the token is regenerated.
The Install token is passed as a parameter to the given .msi (Windows) and .pkg (Mac) installers. It should be considered a secret, and is not stored on the machine in the process.
The installer needs network connection to validate the install token. This is the same outgoing URL and port that is required for the dispatch connection once the software is up and running.
