How to Generate a Personal Access Token (PAT)
A Personal Access Token (PAT) allows you to securely connect external tools — such as MCP clients (Cursor, Claude, etc.) — to your Vaiz account.
This guide walks you through creating, copying, and managing your PAT.
Step 1: Open Your Personal Settings
Click your profile icon in the top-right corner of Vaiz.
Select Settings from the dropdown menu.

You’ll see the section Personal Access Tokens — this is where all your tokens will appear.
Click Generate new token.

Step 3: Generate a New Token
In the Token name field, enter a descriptive name.
Note: Use a descriptive name so you remember where this token will be used (for example: My MacBook Pro, Production Server, MCP, GitHub Actions, etc.).
When ready, click Generate token to continue.

Step 4: Copy and Save Your Token
Once the token is created, Vaiz will display it one time only.
- Click
Copyto save the token to your clipboard. - Confirm that you stored it securely by checking
I have saved my token. - Click
Finishto complete setup.
Important: After closing this screen, you will not be able to view the token again.
If it is lost, you will need to generate a new one.

Step 5: Manage Existing Tokens
Back in the API Tokens tab, you can:
- View all tokens you’ve created.
- See when a token was created and whether it has been used.
- Delete a token you no longer need (open the menu to the right of the token →
Delete).

Conclusion
That’s it — your Personal Access Token is ready to use. Keep it somewhere secure, and use it whenever you need to authenticate external tools or integrations with Vaiz.
If you ever feel your token has been exposed, simply delete it and generate a new one at any time.
