Access Tokens

Overview

Access Tokens allow you to programmatically interact with Sifflet objects through the:

Creating an Access Token

In Settings> Access Tokens
Click the New Access Token button.
Give your Access Token a name.
Choose the role for your Access Token.
(New) Select the domains you want this token to apply to, and assign a [domain role](https://docs.siffletdata.com/docs/access-control) for each domain (Viewer, Editor, Monitor Responder, Catalog Editor, etc.).
- You can combine multiple domains with different roles in a single token.
- Only admins can configure domain-level scopes.
Click the Generate button.
Click the Copy Access Token button to copy your token.
- ⚠️ The token is only displayed once in the application, so make sure to store it securely.
Click the Done button.

Access Token Validity

By default, access tokens are valid for 24 months. You can optionally set a custom expiration period (in days, weeks, or months) when creating a token.

Once an access token reaches its expiration date:

The token is automatically disabled
It can no longer be edited or extended
It must be replaced with a new token to restore access

Expired tokens remain visible until they are manually deleted.

Deleting Access Tokens

To delete an Access Token:

Hover the Access Token you are looking to delete
Click the overflow menu at the far right end of the Access Token row
Click the Delete button

Alternatively, you can delete one, several or all Access Tokens simultaneously:

Select one, several or all Access Tokens using the checkboxes on the far left end of the Access Token row
Click the Delete button at the top of the Access Tokens list

Search Through Access Tokens

The search is performed on Access Tokens names.

Sort Access Tokens

Access Tokens can be sorted by all columns:

Name
Expiration date
Created
Last used
(Token) role
Created by

For all the above dimensions, you can decide to sort Access Tokens in an ascending or descending order.
