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. No code changes are required for existing integrations.

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