Anaconda tokens are authentication credentials that allow you and your users to securely access your organization's Anaconda Premium Repository (repo.anaconda.cloud) and the channels available on your Anaconda Platform Cloud.
For end users, please the see the Activate Token page.
Token Types
Anaconda tokens are activated and accessible through the Token Access page
when you or your users are assigned a seat:
Individual Access Tokens
Individual access tokens provide access to your organization's packages for building local environments. Each user, including you as the admin, receives a unique token on seat assignment (to learn how to manage seats, refer to User Management).
When a seat is not assigned to a user, they will see a message on the Token Access page instructing them to contact you, as the admin, for seat assignment:
Reissue and Sync Tokens
On token activation, Activate Token on the Token Access page is replaced by Reissue Token and Sync Token.
Reissue Token allows you to generate new token access credentials. To do so:
- Select Reissue token on the Token Access Page.
- In the pop-up window, select Reissue Token.
- You’ll now see your new Token Credentials. Select Copy Token and then save it securely.
Notes:
- Reissuing a token automatically invalidates your previous credentials.
- Use this option only if your token access credentials are lost or compromised.
Sync Token allows you to synchronize your token access with your organization's current subscription. To sync your token
- Select Sync token on the Token Access Page.
- The Valid until date under Status may change once syncing is complete.
Notes:
- Synchronizing extends your token's lifespan to match your organization's subscription validity.
- Use Sync Token after your organization renews its subscription to avoid needing to reissue a token to yourself, as subscription renewals don't automatically extend your token validity (validity date is visible under Status on the Token Access page).
- Note that token syncing may take a few minutes to complete.
Revoke User Seat and Token Access
If for some reason, you revoke a user’s seat, they’ll lose their token access. In this case, they’ll see a message on the Token Access page instructing them to contact you, the admin, for seat assignment.
When a user’s seat is revoked and they lose their activated token, they’ll receive a notification email. For those who haven’t activated their token, no notification email is sent.
