Needs a signed-in user who administers the realm. The private key never leaves CliqHub. No credential is needed from this machine. From another host, send `Authorization: Bearer` with a dispatch token CliqHub signed for this daemon or a `cliq_tok_…` personal token of a user in the daemon's realm; this only works once the daemon is connected to CliqHub. See [Authentication](/daemon-api/overview#authentication). ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi/daemon-by-tag/daemon-auth.yaml post /v1/auth/rotate_dispatch openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: cliqd API version: 1.9.48 description: >- HTTP API of `cliqd`, the local Cliq daemon.

A daemon that has never joined a realm **enrolls** in one the first time it signs in. Once enrolled it stays in that realm: signing in again keeps it, and moving it to another realm needs cliqd started with `--allow-realm-override` plus an explicit confirmation. Sign-in and sign-out are only accepted from the machine running cliqd. paths: /v1/auth/rotate_dispatch: post: tags: - Daemon Sign-in summary: Rotate a dispatch key description: >- Asks CliqHub to replace a realm's dispatch key pair, which signs the tokens CliqHub uses when it sends work to the realm's daemons, and returns the new public key.
