Generating an Administrator Token
Hi, is there a way to automate the generation of this token, we need to generate a new token everytime we need to do an export to keep security risks to a minimum.
thanks and regards,

Actually, I have the same problem in my current environment. I haven't found a way to automate it, but if I do, I'll share it with you. If anyone else does, feel free to share.
Typically, however, this isn't something one would write an API to accomplish, because of the significant security implications of mishandling that token.
thanks Tom,
Still facing the same problem; how to generate the admin token via a script?
we can encrypt and deactivate the token after each use , so there is less concern about security.
but we are planning to automate the export api feed and rest api feed , so we need to know how to automate the generation of yammer admin token, so that we can automate the entire process without manual intervention.
so wondering if any one has found a way to automatically generate the token.
