Yesterday evening I deleted an authorized third party application from one of my characters in the account management.
Shouldn't that revoke access of that application to my authed CREST data?
It says "You have not granted any 3rd party applications any rights..." in the account management, yet I can still track that character's location via CREST with the application I deleted from it yesterday.
Or am I misunderstanding what deleting an authorized third party application does?


edit: now account management tells me that "An error occurred while retrieving your third party application permissions. Please try again later. "

Got confirmation a fix is in progress. We may wipe all access tokens and refresh tokens when deployed to be sure.

Works for me. I now see the permissions I have granted at: https://community.eveonline.com/support/third-party-applications/.

I HATE refresh tokens with no expiration. But as a developer, if you need access for longer than 20 minutes, you have to use them.

Imagine something like Tripwire switching to authed CREST to get away from the IGB. Having the player log in every 20 minutes is a no go.

One login after every downtime? Perfectly OK.

The CREST of my dreams:


  • Gives out non-renewing tokens that last until the next downtime
  • The application can also request renewing tokens. The user will get a big fat red warning on the login screen, with a prominent link about how to remove access if they ever desire to. Maybe a checkbox that lets them choose an expiring token instead, against the wishes of the developer?
  • 3rd party application app on the support site lets you delete all tokens for a 3rd party application
  • Tokens are shown grouped by app, with a count and maybe some other stats; not just an endless list
  • Maybe even show expired tokens for some time

No it's not ok.
You'd have to login for every character that you'd want to track in your w-space mapping tool. For most wormholers that is far more than just one character.
And then you'd have to do it again for every other third party tool you use.
Imagine having to add new API keys into e.g. EveMon/EFT/etc. every day for every character... Shocked

You have to log into EVE after every downtime, too. I fail to see what's so much worse about an additional login in some webapp.

You only need to click one button to log multiple accounts into Eve. That doesn't work with CREST.

We actually have that exact problem currently with our mapping tool because the IGB hates cookies and thus people need to login on each client.
Guess what? They just don't login their alts at all, because it's annoying to do it 3+ times, which then completely messes up any mass calculations.
