How do you authenticate on the API?
If you use JWT you could simply create a token with a very long time to live, since that's stateless and the information is in the token anyway your api wouldn't have to be concerned with it.

API & Authentication
Alright, got a bit of an interesting question.
I have two systems, 1 is an API, the other is a frontend. I am trying to figure out how to stay logged in on the frontend system. I have given thought to using the users table, and when a user connects to the API, does their authentication, they front-end system will just 'create' a user for them and authenticate them that way. Storing the required tokens and all that.
I am just not sure if that is reasonable or not.
Thanks
