How can I get my Discloud API token?
Learn what the Discloud API Token is and where to find it on the Dashboard.
🔑 What is the Discloud API Token?
Your Discloud API Token is a personal, secret credential that authenticates you to all Discloud developer surfaces:
It uniquely identifies your account, so anyone with this token can act as you. Treat it like a password.
📍 Where to Get It
Follow these steps to view (or copy) your token on the Dashboard:
Open the Dashboard: https://discloud.com/dashboard
Click the API Key tab (top section of your profile area).
Use the Copy button to place the token on your clipboard.
If the field is hidden, click the eye icon to reveal it. Use Reset Token only if you suspect compromise.
🔒 Security Best Practices
Keep it private (never share or screenshot)
Prevent account takeover
Do NOT commit to Git
Public repos are scanned by bots
Use environment variables / secret managers
Centralized rotation & safer logs
Rotate (Reset Token) if exposed
Immediately invalidates old token
If you accidentally publish or paste your token somewhere public, reset it immediately on the Dashboard (API Key tab) and redeploy any services using the old one.
