Personal access token scopes
Token creation offers these scope pairs:
New keys start with the available read scopes selected. Remove any read area the client does not need. Add a write scope only for an intended write workflow.
Write behavior
Use a separate key per client, give it a short expiry, and avoid “no expiry” unless the environment has its own rotation process. Test with read-only access first. OAuth connections are read-only. Use a personal access token only when the client needs writes and can protect a bearer secret.Credential handling
- Store the full key in the client’s secret storage.
- Never put it in source control, a prompt, a Source, or ordinary logs.
- Revoke it immediately if it appears in copied output or screenshots.
- Disconnect unused OAuth clients and revoke keys for retired devices.
