***How do I reset  a user's authentication token?***

Should you require resetting a user's authentication token (the authentication token is provided in our API response when the user is provisioned in our system), you may make a GET request for a new user authentication token. This will effectively invalidate the authentication token previously assigned to the user.

```
GET {ORGANIZATION_ID}/users/{VALIDIC_USER_ID}/refresh_token.json?access_token={ORG_ACCESS_TOKEN}
{
    "code": 200,
    "message": "Ok",
    "user": {
        "id_": "51552cd7fded0807c4000017",
        "uid": "1234567890",
        "authentication_token": "uXek7RK2wUnm84BJRv5Q"
    }
}
```
