Token Manager

Creating a token for other users

If your administrator has granted permissions to create tokens for other users, you'll see another tab called "Token Manager".
It also allows you to filter tokens of all users and create tokens for any of them

To create a token for somebody else, press the New API Token button again and select a user to create a token for.
Provide a description and select an expiration time. Minimum value here is what your administrator has defined.
You might choose a lower value, but you can't select anything above, if applicable at all.

Revoking tokens of other users

If you have permissions to access the Token Manage tab, you can revoke/ delete tokens in the same way you would your own tokens.
Just use the delete icon/ link in the Action column.

Filter Tokens

The token manager tab also provides filter capabilities.

Select one or more users for whom you want to see their tokens, enter a string from the token description to search for (search is case insensitive)
or filter for created-, last used- or expiration date. 

The date filters provide presets to choose from but you can also define a custom range for each
