Managing Retrieval Endpoint Tokens
Access tokens are required to authenticate API requests to your RAG pipeline endpoints. This guide explains how to manage access tokens in Vectorize.
Accessing Token Management
There are two ways to access the token management page:
From the main dashboard:
Click the gear icon in the bottom left corner
You can alternatively access the token management page from a RAG Pipeline's Connect tab:
Click the "Manage access tokens" button
Token Management Page
The token management page displays all active access tokens and allows you to create new ones.
Creating a New Token
Click the "New Access Token" button
In the dialog that appears, enter a name for your token
Select an expiration period from the dropdown menu
Available expiration options are:
1 hour
1 day
7 days
30 days
90 days
1 year
Never (not recommended for security reasons)
Click "Create Token"
Viewing and Storing Your Token
After creation, your new token will be displayed once. Make sure to copy and store it securely, as you won't be able to view it again.
Best Practices
Use descriptive names for your tokens to easily identify their purpose
Set appropriate expiration periods based on your security requirements
Rotate tokens regularly to enhance security
Never share your tokens publicly or commit them to version control systems
Remember, these tokens provide access to all the RAG pipeline retrieval endpoints in your organization. Treat them with the same level of security as you would passwords.
