You can create and delete a personal token from Azion Console or with the Azion CLI. A personal token authenticates your requests to the Azion API and the commands you run in the CLI. To revoke a token, delete it.

Prerequisites

Console

Create a personal token

Each personal token has a name, an optional description, and an expiration. Azion shows the token value only when the token is created, so store it before you continue.

Console

To create a personal token in Azion Console:

Open the Personal Tokens page

Access Azion Console > Account > Personal Token. Account is the avatar menu.

Select + Personal Token
Name the token

In the General section, enter a Name that identifies the token.

(Optional) Describe the token

In Description, enter what the token is for.

Set the expiration

In the Token section, select a value in Expires within. The default is 1 day. The other values are:

  • 7 days, 15 days, 30 days, or 90 days
  • 1 year
  • Custom Date, which opens a calendar to select the date
Select Save
Copy the token

In the Personal Token has been created dialog, select Copy. The Personal Token field masks the value until you show it.

Select Confirm

The token appears on the Personal Tokens page with its Expiration Date. After the dialog closes, the value cannot be retrieved, and a lost token must be replaced with a new one.

Delete a personal token

Deleting a personal token revokes it, and the deletion cannot be undone. Azion Console asks you to confirm the deletion with the token name, and the Azion CLI takes the token UUID.

Console

To delete a personal token in Azion Console:

Open the Personal Tokens page

Access Azion Console > Account > Personal Token. Account is the avatar menu.

Select Delete on the token

In the row of the token, select Delete. The Delete personal token dialog opens.

Enter the token name

In the box of the dialog, enter the name of the token, as the confirmation label quotes it.

Select Delete

The message Personal token successfully deleted appears, and the token no longer shows on the Personal Tokens page.
