API Tokens

API tokens let scripts, CI jobs, and other tools talk to the Korey API on your behalf. Each token belongs to a single user and carries the scopes you choose.

Create a token

  1. Open Settings → Profile → API Tokens.
  2. Click Create token in the top right.
  3. Fill in the form:
    • Name — a label so future-you remembers what it’s for (e.g. “CI pipeline”, “local script”).
    • Scopes — the permissions this token will carry. Defaults to all available scopes; select the minimum set the consuming tool needs. Use threads:read:own to restrict a token to only your own threads.
    • Expiry — pick 1 day, 7 days, 30 days, or Never.
  4. Click Create. The raw token appears once in a dialog with a copy button.

Revoking your own tokens

Revoke a token if it is no longer needed, if you suspect it has been leaked, or when rotating to a new token. Once revoked, any script or tool using it will receive 401 Unauthorized on its next request.

  1. Open Settings → Profile → API Tokens.
  2. Find the token and click Revoke.
  3. Confirm in the dialog that appears.

The token is invalidated immediately. This action cannot be undone — create a new token if you need access again.

Admin: workspace token management

Org admins can view and revoke all active tokens across the workspace — PAT and OAuth — from a single page.

  1. Open Settings → Organization → API Tokens (admin only).
  2. The table shows every active token: name, owner, type, last used, and created date.
  3. Use the search box to filter by token name or owner, or use the Type dropdown to narrow to Personal or OAuth tokens.
  4. Click Revoke on any row and confirm the dialog to immediately invalidate that token.
