API tokens authenticate users when they try to retrieve information from Paragon Automation by using REST APIs. By using API tokens, users can avoid authentication for each request they make. An API token provides visibility into the resources accessed by a user, enabling you to have better control over access to resources.

Table 1 lists the parameters for configuring API tokens.
