Why I can not generate token for reading data from things in smartwork IoT
Now, I use Smartworks IoT to prove of concept that it can do for IoT project. I got some issue about generating token for allowing to access to the things. To send and read data to the things we need to generate token by using information from interface tab and have to specify the scope that want to access such as read, create, update, delete. when i generate token by using data.read on API inspector, i got issue that it not allow me to generate the token by display message "Fail to generate access token". but for scope to be "data.create" then it allow. please tell me why? and how to solve this issue

Hello Aditap,
For security reasons, things just have permissions to send data (using the scope data.create) but not to read data. That's why if you want to read data from a thing you need to create an app as explained here and add to it scope data. See below screenshots for reference:
1. Create the app with scope data
2. Click + to add policy with resource #
3.

NOTE: some changes have been made in the platform and the URL format for the API inspector doesn't required the https://api.swx.altairone.com anymore
