I have not written about the usage of the API, except copied the headers used for other API's. I have also avoided writing about the license/terms since I don't want to misrepresent/paraphrase legal documents

The structure is easy to follow, and the inclusion of licensing and terms of use is a good addition. The explanation of access tokens being valid for 24 hours is especially important and clearly communicated.

It could also help to include a short example of how a token is requested or how an authenticated API call is made, as that would make the documentation more practical for developers using it later.

Overall, the wiki page provides a good introduction to the API access process and documents the important account and token details clearly.

The wiki page gives a clear overview of how API access is handled through the Västtrafik developer platform and explains the relationship between accounts, applications, and access tokens in an understandable way. The sections about token validity and restrictions are also useful and help clarify important limitations and responsibilities when using the APIs.
