## Walmart DSV: Token-Based API Authentication

[Walmart DSV](https://help.sellercloud.com/omnichannel-ecommerce/walmart-dropship-vendor-integration-via-api/) is currently in the process of transitioning from digital signature-based API authentication to a token-based one. We have made some updates to accommodate this change.  If the necessary Admin setting is enabled for your account, you will see a new checkbox on the [Walmart DSV General](https://help.sellercloud.com/omnichannel-ecommerce/walmart-dsv-account-settings-configuration/) company settings called **Enable Access Token Based Authentication**. When you enable this, five new fields related to **Access Token** will appear, as well as two actions to **Get New Access Token** and **Validate API Access Token**. Note that both authentication types will be functional until March 2024. However, to obtain your **Consumer ID** and **Private key** for Walmart, you must contact their support team directly. You will only have access to your **Client ID** and **Client Secret,** used for the new Token-Based authentication.
