Personal Access Tokens

TIR uses two kinds of credential to protect your resources. Personal Access Tokens sign in your applications, scripts, and services to the TIR API, so only the clients you give a token to can use it. SSH keys, the other kind, let you connect to your instances and training clusters over an encrypted connection; see SSH Key Management.

Where to find them

Personal Access Tokens is in a project’s side menu, under PLATFORM SERVICES. You see the tokens you created in that project.

What you can do

• Create a token with a name you choose.
• Copy a token or download its config file when a script needs it.
• Use a token in API calls from a command line, a script, or a CI/CD pipeline.
• Delete a token you are done with.

How Personal Access Tokens work explains what a token can reach, how long it lasts, and how to keep it safe.

Where to start

Start with Get started with Personal Access Tokens, which creates your first token. For help with a message, see Troubleshooting Personal Access Tokens, and for short answers, the FAQ.
