October 12, 2026
PAT

Changed

Generating a Personal Access Token (PAT) now happens on its own page instead of in a dialog on the [Personal Access Token page](https://developer.godaddy.com/personal-access-token). The new page also lets you clone an existing token's settings as a starting point for a new one.

## What changed

Select **Generate Token** to go to the new **Generate Personal Access Token** page. The fields are renamed to match: **Token Name**, **Expires After**, and **Permissions** (previously **Name**, **Expiration**, and **Scopes**). Use the new bulk selectors to specify multiple similar scopes instead of one by one. Select **Create Token** to finish, the same way you previously selected **Generate Token** in the dialog.

Revoking a token also changed. Next to the token, select the actions menu (**⋯**), then select **Revoke**, instead of selecting a trash icon.

## Who is affected

Anyone who generates or revokes a PAT in the Developer Portal. The underlying token format, scopes, and API behavior are unchanged. Only the generation and revocation UI moved, so existing integrations need no code changes.

Existing tokens are unaffected by this change; only the creation of new tokens.
