Tips and tricks

When creating an API token, remember these tips and best practices:

• Keep your token secure: Do not share your API token publicly or expose it in client-side code. Always handle it securely and use environment variables or secure storage solutions.
• Use descriptive names: Name your tokens descriptively to easily identify their purpose or project association.
• Rotate your tokens regularly: For enhanced security, consider rotating your API tokens periodically. This helps minimize the risk of unauthorized access if a token is compromised.
• Monitor token usage: Keep an eye on the usage and performance of your API tokens. This can help you identify any potential issues or security breaches early on.
