Keep in mind that only users with admin rights can generate access tokens.
Access tokens are a secure way of performing automated integrations with Debricked. They are safer compared to using a username and password, and their typical use cases include GitLab, Bitbucket, and API integrations, which are not tied to a particular user, but rather to a repository or a project.
To generate a new access token:
Go to Admin tools in the left side menu
Input your password to enter the administrative mode
In the Account settings tab, click on the +Create button
Fill in the description and if needed, tick the Admin box which gives access to more actions, such as performing scans
Click on Generate
Copy the generated token.
You can only view this token once, so make sure to save it before closing the window.
Admin tokens: always give access to all repositories, both already existing and those created in the future
User tokens: when creating a token, the new token gets User access (equivalent to Reviewer in RBAC) to every existing repository at the time of token creation
Admin tokens: always give access to all repositories, both existing and future. They get the Repository Admin access for every newly created repository.
User tokens: when creating the token, it gets Reviewer access to every existing repository at the time of creation. For repositories created afterward, it gets the default role assigned by the admin.
