Pinwheel Link Token API is one of 12 APIs that [Pinwheel](https://apis.io/providers/pinwheel-api/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Link, Tokens, Authentication, and Onboarding. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

The Pinwheel Link Token API mints short-lived link_tokens that initialize the Pinwheel Link drop-in UI (Web, iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter, Capacitor). The token scopes the session to a specific end user, a chosen job (direct deposit switch, paystubs, employment, identity, income, shifts, tax forms, bill switch, bill cancellation), and the configured environment (sandbox or production).
