Token creation

tripu edited this page Feb 4, 2015 · 8 revisions

The automated publication workflow requires a token associated with the specification you want to publish. Send an email to your team contact if you need a token.

Team contacts can use a form to request a token. That form takes 2 parameters:

  • specification url: the latest version url of the specification, e.g. http://www.w3.org/TR/<shortname>
  • source of the specification: for security reasons, a token is also associated with a document origin. When using Echidna, if the URL of the document/manifest doesn't begin with the source provided, the system will deny the request. For example, if the document is hosted on GitHub, the source should be https://github.com/w3c/<repo>.

NOTE: the token is meant to be private, and only shared among the Working Group participants.
