Authentication credentials that provide specific permissions and limits when using and accessing LogScale through any of the APIs. These API tokens provide fine-grained control over the capabilities, IP access and expiration of the API token. For example, an API token can be created that only allows a user to be created but that expires after an hour. In contrast a Personal API token has all the abilities and permissions of the roles applied to the user, with no expiry. API tokens can be scoped to different domains including repositories, organizations, and system-level operations, each with configurable permissions, IP filtering, and automatic expiration settings.
