## Managing API Tokens

{{< img src="tokens.png" alt="Tokens" >}}

To create an API token, click on the **Create** button.
Once the API token is created, make sure to copy the token, as you won't be able to retrieve it again later.

There are 5 permissions available for API Tokens:

- The **None** permission, which doesn't allow any action. Typically useful to restrict global permissions on team-specific tokens.
- The **Read** permission, allows reading all data.
- The **Start** permission, allows starting tests + Read permissions (typically useful in a CI plugin).
- The **Configure** permission, allows creating / uploading packages and creating tests + Start permissions (typically useful in our build plugins).
- The **Administrate** permission, allows managing all organization resources.

You can set a permission globally or within a specific team only.
