# Agora Node Token Server
This is an example of a simple Node/Express server that generates tokens for Agora applications. 

### Run the server ###
- Install the dependencies
```node
npm install
```
- Create a copy of the `.env.example` file and save it as `.env`
- Add your Agora App ID and App Certificate:
```
APP_ID=ca123xxxxxx
APP_CERTIFICATE=12za123xxxxxx
```
You can obtain these values by selecting your project in the [Agora console projects section](https://console.agora.io/projects). Optionally, you can also define a port.

- Start the service
```node
npm start
```
