|
|
|
Creating Project API tokens requires you to have the `CREATE_PROJECT_API_TOKEN` permission.
|
|
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
Unleash SDKs use API tokens to authenticate to the Unleash API. Unleash supports different types of API tokens, each with different levels of access and privileges. Refer to the [API tokens and client keys documentation](../reference/api-tokens-and-client-keys.mdx) for a complete overview of the different token types.
|
|
|
|
## Step 1: Navigate to the API token creation form {#step-1}
|
|
|
|
Navigate to the Project _API access_ page in the admin UI (available at the URL `/admin/projects/<project-name>/api-access`). Use the navigation tab "Project Settings" and select "API access".

On the API access page, use the "New API token" button to navigate to the token creation form.

|

|
|
|
|
Fill in the form with the desired values for the token you want to create. Refer to the [API tokens and client keys](../reference/api-tokens-and-client-keys.mdx#token-data) article for a detailed explanation of what all the fields mean.

|
## Using Project API tokens
|
|
|
|
When you have created the Project API token, it will be listed on the Project API access page. If you have the required permissions to see the token (`READ_PROJECT_API_TOKEN`), you can copy it for easy use in your applications.
