Connect with an API token

  1. In pCloud:

    1. pCloud documents no settings page for creating an API token. Obtain an auth token through the API: call an authenticated method such as userinfo with getauth=1, for example https://api.pcloud.com/userinfo?getauth=1&logout=1 with your username and password (over SSL) or with digest authentication (getdigest, then username, digest and passworddigest).
    2. Copy the auth value from the response and paste it into Safeguard as the token.
    3. Alternatively, obtain a bearer token through OAuth 2.0 (authorize then oauth2_token) and pass it to API methods as access_token.

    pCloud issues this credential through its API or its support team, not through its admin screens.

    pCloud documents no read-only token scope; an auth token acts as the user. Tokens can be listed with listtoken and revoked with deletetoken. The API host given in the docs is api.pcloud.com; an EU-region host was not confirmed from a fetched page, so the Base URL location is not documented here.

    Source: docs.pcloud.com, docs.pcloud.com, checked 2026-10-07.

  2. On Compliance › Connectors, open pCloud, click Connect, choose API token and fill in:

Frameworks

pCloud publishes no API for what these tests check, so its evidence is an attestation: connect it to record the connection, then attest the result. An accepted attestation counts toward each control below.
