View API tokens and permissions using the InfluxDB user interface (UI), the influx command line interface (CLI), or the InfluxDB API.

{{% note %}} Tokens are visible to the user who created the token. {{% oss-only %}} Users who own a token with Operator permissions also have access to all tokens. {{% /oss-only %}} Tokens stop working when the user who created the token is deleted. We recommend creating a generic user to create and manage tokens for writing data. {{% /note %}}

View tokens in the InfluxDB UI

1. In the navigation menu on the left, select Data (Load Data) > Tokens.

   {{< nav-icon "load-data" "v2" >}}

2. Click a token name from the list to view the token and a summary of access permissions.

View tokens using the influx CLI

Use the influx auth list command to view tokens.

influx auth list

Filtering options such as filtering by authorization ID, username, or user ID are available. See the influx auth list documentation for information about other available flags.

View tokens using the InfluxDB API

Use the /authorizations endpoint of the InfluxDB API to view tokens and permissions.

{{% api-endpoint method="GET" endpoint="/api/v2/authorizations" %}}

Include the following in your request:

Requirement	Include by
API token with the read: authorizations permission	Use the Authorization: Token YOUR_API_TOKEN header.

{{% get-shared-text "api/v2.0/auth/oss/tokens-view.sh" %}}

View a single token

To view a specific authorization and token, include the authorization ID in the URL path.

{{% api-endpoint method="GET" endpoint="/api/v2/authorizations/{authID}" %}}

Filter the token list

InfluxDB returns authorizations from the same organization as the token used in the request. To filter tokens by user, include userID as a query parameter in your request.

{{% get-shared-text "api/v2.0/auth/oss/tokens-view-filter.sh" %}}

{{% oss-only %}}

[Operator tokens](/{{% latest "influxdb" %}}/security/tokens/#operator-token) have access to all organizations' authorizations. To filter authorizations by organization when using an operator token, include an org or orgID query parameter in your request.

{{% oss-only %}}

See the /authorizations endpoint documentation for more information about available parameters.
