Motivation

MT-23076: the API token endpoints now accept an optional expires_at. This exposes it in the Go SDK for token create and reset.

Changes

  • new TokenExpiration type with ExpiresAt(rfc3339) and NeverExpires() constructors. It keeps the three request states of createApiToken/resetApiToken distinct on the wire: field omitted (server default – a 1-year default is being rolled out behind a feature flag), explicit "expires_at": null (never expires), explicit RFC 3339 date-time
  • CreateAPITokenRequest gains ExpiresAt *TokenExpiration (createApiToken optional nullable expires_at body param)
  • new ResetAPITokenRequest with the same field – resetApiToken now accepts an optional request body
  • breaking: APITokens.Reset(ctx, tokenID) becomes Reset(ctx, tokenID, req *ResetAPITokenRequest). Accepted pre-1.0; mirrors how Create takes a request struct, same precedent as MT-22678: add search option to ContactLists.List #26. Reset(ctx, id, nil) sends no request body, exactly as before
  • no client-side date validation – past, unparseable, or more-than-5-years-ahead values are rejected by the server with 422, surfaced as *mailtrap.ValidationError
  • AccountAccessSpecifier gains MaskedToken (masked_token on the ApiToken specifier in getAllUsersInAccount)
  • extended the examples/api-tokens example and the README entry

How to test

  • APITokens.Create without ExpiresAt – the request body has no expires_at key and the token is created with the server default expiration
  • APITokens.Create with ExpiresAt: mailtrap.NeverExpires() – the request body contains "expires_at": null and the response expires_at is null
  • APITokens.Create with ExpiresAt: mailtrap.ExpiresAt("2027-06-01T00:00:00Z") – the request body contains that exact string and the response echoes it
  • APITokens.Create with a past date, e.g. mailtrap.ExpiresAt("2020-01-01T00:00:00Z") – the server responds 422 and the SDK returns *mailtrap.ValidationError with the expires_at message in Fields
  • APITokens.Reset(ctx, id, nil) – no request body and no Content-Type header are sent, the same wire request as the previous Reset(ctx, id); the reset succeeds
  • APITokens.Reset(ctx, id, &mailtrap.ResetAPITokenRequest{ExpiresAt: mailtrap.NeverExpires()}) – the body is {"expires_at":null} and the replacement token never expires

Companion PRs

Caveat: release/merge only after falcon deploys MT-23076 and zap_api_token_expiration is enabled in production.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The API token API now supports optional expiration dates and never-expiring tokens for creation and reset operations. Serialization, request handling, tests, access metadata, examples, and documentation were updated.

Changes

API token expiration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Token expiration contract and service wiring
account_accesses.go, api_tokens.go
Added TokenExpiration, RFC 3339 and never-expiring constructors, expiration request fields, reset request support, and MaskedToken.
Expiration request and response validation
api_tokens_test.go
Added exact body and response assertions for omitted, null, timestamp, and reset expiration values.
Example and documentation updates
examples/api-tokens/main.go, README.md
Updated the example and documentation to show token expiration options and output.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to 38452

The PR adds API-token expiration support, but the updated example still prints the full live token, which could expose a credential in CI or persisted logs; remove or protect that output before merging.

Preserve existing Reset call sites.

The public API previously accepted Reset(ctx, tokenID). The current signature requires a third argument, so existing consumers fail to compile. Use a variadic optional request parameter, or defer this change to a SemVer-major release.

Do not print the full API token in normal example output.

Line 43 writes token.Token to stdout. CI log collectors can retain this live credential, and an interrupted or failed reset can leave it valid. Print only non-secret metadata, or make full-token output an explicit local-only step with a warning that logs must not be persisted.
