Personal access token

To consume all public RudderStack APIs, you need a personal access token - an access token associated with your RudderStack account.

This guide describes the steps to generate a personal access token and the operations associated with it.

You can create and use personal access tokens with the permissions specific to your role type. Read-only users can create access tokens with only read-only privileges, Read-Write users with read-only and read-write privileges, and Admin users with all privileges.
