Fortigate API Key expire?

Hello Support Community,

Is it safe to say that the API Key for the Fortigate does not expire? If I were to generate one using the command line, could this be re-used forever?

execute api-user generate-key apiadmin
 
 

Appreciate it

I am fairly certain there is no expiry on API Keys. However you can pair them with certificates which can be revoked or valid for only small periods of time.

Cheers,
Graham
