Signature
ONLYOFFICE Docs uses tokens generated using the JSON Web Tokens standard.
This feature is used in ONLYOFFICE Docs starting with version 4.2
For the validation setup it is necessary to edit the secret key and token parameters in the configuration file which can be found (or created) at the following path:
For Linux - /etc/onlyoffice/documentserver/local.json.
For Windows - %ProgramFiles%\ONLYOFFICE\DocumentServer\config\local.json.
The default values are available in the default.json configuration file, which is available in the folders above (for Linux and Windows).
Please do not edit the contents of the default.json file directly.
The default values will be restored each time you restart Docker container or upgrade ONLYOFFICE Docs to a new version and all your changes will be lost.
Restart the services for the config changes to take effect:
For RPM/DEB packages:
systemctl restart ds-*
For Docker:
supervisorctl restart all

Code samples for signature generation
Below you can find examples of signature generation for init config and requests.
They are taken from test samples in different programming languages.
We advise you to use this code in your projects to generate signatures.
- C#
- Java
- Node.js
- PHP
- Python
- Ruby
- Go
