# Audit Trail Verify in the Public API and Generated Reference Pages
URL: https://docs.autociso.io/release-notes/2026-10-audit-trail-verify-api-and-reference/
Description: API tokens with the new audit_log:verify scope can run the Audit Trail integrity check, and the hand-written REST pages are replaced by generated reference pages.

## Audit Trail verify for API tokens

**Plans:** Plans that include the Audit Trail (The Growth and above)
**Where:** **API Tokens**; `GET /api/v1/audit-trail/verify`
**Who benefits:** CTOs, IT managers and auditors who want to check the integrity of the Audit Trail from a script instead of the console.

API tokens can now run the Audit Trail hash chain check. It needs the new scope `audit_log:verify`, which only an Owner can grant (longest expiry 180 days). The scope allows the integrity check and nothing else, and it is part of the **Read everything** preset.

For tokens the result is cached for 60 seconds per organisation, so read `verifiedAt` to see how fresh it is. The token response leaves out approver identities, hashes and free-text references.

**How to use it**

1. As an Owner, click the user menu, then **API Tokens** and **Create Token**. Tick `audit_log:verify`, choose an expiry of 180 days or less and click **Create Token**.
2. Call `GET /api/v1/audit-trail/verify` with `Authorization: Bearer <token>`. See [Verify the audit trail hash chain](https://docs.autociso.io/api/reference/audit-trail/verify/).
3. Auditors: read [Audit Trail Integrity and Accepted Link Breaks](https://docs.autociso.io/product/admin/audit-trail-integrity/#running-the-check-with-an-api-token) for what the token result contains.

## REST pages are now generated reference pages

The hand-written pages for the Supply Chain, Onboarding, Off-boarding, Supplier Questionnaires and Audit Trail Verify APIs are gone. Every operation now has a generated reference page under [API reference](https://docs.autociso.io/api/reference/) that always matches the live API. The old page addresses redirect to the new pages, so existing bookmarks and links keep working. The guides, such as [Upload an SBOM from CI](https://docs.autociso.io/api/upload-sbom/), link to the operation pages instead of repeating them.
