Tips and Tricks (Advanced)-Granting "Backdoor Access" with Access Token

Granting "Backdoor Access" with Access Token

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The tutorial explains an alternative way to enroll users in a course when purchase-based access is handled outside the LMS, such as by a CRM or AMS. If the normal purchase integration fails, you can generate access tokens instead of manually granting access. The admin creates a batch of single-use tokens, downloads them in an Excel file, and shares the token URLs. When a user opens a token link, they receive explicit access to the course. This serves as a temporary or “backdoor” access method, especially useful when you don’t know the end user in advance.
