  1. On the left-hand menu, select Access Tokens, and then select Create token.

Now you can set an expiration date for your access token. This feature allows you to better manage your security settings and ensure your access remains secure and up-to-date.

  • The tokens created before a new feature implementation don’t have a creation date and expiration date, therefore they are considered non-expiring.

  • All new tokens have a creation date and might have an expiration date (this is optional).
