Update Token Configuration

Description

The update operation updates the shared key that is used to generate tokens and encrypt specific elements of your ArcGIS Enterprise portal licensing information. Starting at ArcGIS Enterprise 11.4, this operation generates a new base64 encoded key rather than requiring a new shared key be manually provided by administrators. For organizations using a version of Enterprise at 11.3 or earlier, a manual key will still need to be provided. Keys must either be a 32-byte string or 44 characters if the key is base64 encoded. Key length is verified prior to any changes taking place.

Performing the request will update the token configuration information with the new key (either generated by the system or provided by an administrator) and any previously issued tokens and encryption will be invalidated. Once the operation is complete, ArcGIS Enterprise portal will restart and remain inaccessible for some time.
