API tokens
In Account settings, API Access shows your bearer token. Use it to read or update individual math-region values. Refreshing immediately invalidates the old token.
Copy a variable address
- Sign in and save the worksheet.
- Right-click a math assignment (
:=) and choose Copy variable address. - Call the HTTP API with that address and your token:
GET /api/v1/cells/<address>/
POST /api/v1/cells/<address>/
{"value": 42, "unit": "in"}
Authorization: Bearer <your-token>
Both GET and POST responses include the value and its unit.
On POST, omit unit to keep the region’s existing unit, or
pass "unit": "" to make it dimensionless.
Anyone with the token can read and update your worksheet values — keep it secret. Copy next to the field copies the token; Refresh Token issues a new one.
The Inventor add-in uses the same addresses — see Inventor add-in and Copy variable address on the region context menu. Tokens are created in Account settings, next to billing.
