How to Log Out a Team Member Using DoubleTick’s Logout API
DoubleTick allows admins to remotely log out a team member from their DoubleTick account using a simple API call. This guide explains how to perform this action using the interactive API documentation at:
https://docs.doubletick.io/reference/logout-team-member
This guide does not require any local API setup or Postman — everything is done directly in the browser from the documentation page.
1. Open the Logout API Page
Navigate to:
👉 https://docs.doubletick.io/reference/logout-team-member
This page shows the Logout a Team Member endpoint along with example requests, response codes, and a built-in “Try It” feature.
2. Retrieve Your DoubleTick API Key
To execute the request, you will need your DoubleTick Public API Key.
Follow these steps:
Log in to your DoubleTick account
Go to Settings
Look for Developer Documentation (inside the Settings menu)
Copy the API Key
Note: This API key authorizes your request. Do not share this key publicly.
3. Paste Your API Key in the Documentation Header
Return to the API page:
👉 https://docs.doubletick.io/reference/logout-team-member
On the right-hand panel under Credentials, you will find a header field.
Paste the copied API key into this field.
Example format (auto-populates in headers):
This ensures that the request is authenticated.
4. Enter the Team Member’s Phone Number
In the request body section, you will see:
Replace "string" with the login phone number of the team member you want to log out.
Example:
Important:
Always include the country code (e.g., +91 for India)
5. Use the "Try It" Button to Execute the Request
On the right-hand panel, you will see the full cURL request auto-generated along with a green “Try It” button.
Click Try It.
This will send the request in real time and show the response below.
6. Understanding the Response Codes
After submitting, review the status code returned:
200 / 201
Success — Team member has been logged out
400
Incorrect payload (e.g., invalid JSON or formatting)
401
Unauthorized request (wrong or missing API key)
422
The phone number provided is not a team member
Example Outcomes
✔ Success
Team member is logged out automatically.
⚠ 400 – Incorrect Payload
Check formatting or missing fields.
❌ 401 – Unauthorized
Verify the API key entered in Credentials.
🚫 422 – Not a Team Member
Verify the login number exists in your DoubleTick team.
7. What Happens After Logout?
Once executed successfully:
The selected team member’s active DoubleTick session ends
They will be required to re-login to continue using DoubleTick
This is especially useful for:
✔ Security/account access management ✔ Removing old/ex-staff logins ✔ Managing shared devices ✔ Temporary lockouts
Summary
Using the Logout API, DoubleTick admins can remotely log out any team member directly through the documentation interface — without coding, Postman, or tools.
All you need is:
✔ API Key (from DoubleTick Settings → Developer Documentation) ✔ Login phone number of the team member (with country code) ✔ The “Try It” button on the docs page
