verify_token()

Verify that the currently stored credential is still valid.

Usage

verify_token(check_server=True)

In self-hosted/token mode this checks the auth token obtained from login(); in Cloud mode it checks the API key set via set_cloud_api_key(). Tokens issued by login() are temporary and eventually expire, after which you must log in again.

This function never raises: any error (network failure, missing credential, expired or rejected token, non-2xx response) results in a return value of False.

Parameters

check_server: bool = True: If True (default), contact the server to confirm the credential is valid — self-hosted posts to /api/auth/verify, while Cloud mode fetches /api/me. If False, perform only a local check (equivalent to is_logged_in()) with no network request.

Returns

bool: True if the credential is valid (or, when check_server is False, simply
present), False otherwise.
