The account server can host activation tokens as well as account JWTs. These tokens are used when one account needs to give permission to another account to access a private export. Tokens can be configured as full tokens, or URLs. By hosting them in the account server you can avoid the copy/paste process of embedding tokens. They can also be updated more easily on expiration. The account serer furthermore allows for jwt inspection. The account server can host activation tokens as well as account JWTs.
