Frequently Asked Questions

Question: I successfully generated my token, but its value is masked.

Answer: For security reasons, the tokens are default hidden, which can be viewed by clicking on the link "Show token".

Question: How can I change my token name and scopes?

Answer: You can edit the name and token scopes anytime by clicking on the "Edit" button. The token will remain unchanged.

Question: Can I delete the generated tokens? What would happen if an API call is made using the deleted token?
