# sailpoint.v2025.PersonalAccessTokensApi
  Use this API to implement personal access token (PAT) functionality. 
With this functionality in place, users can use PATs as an alternative to passwords for authentication in Identity Security Cloud. 

PATs embed user information into the client ID and secret. 
This replaces the API clients&#39; need to store and provide a username and password to establish a connection, improving Identity Security Cloud organizations&#39; integration security. 

In Identity Security Cloud, users can do the following to create and manage their PATs: Select the dropdown menu under their names, select Preferences, and then select Personal Access Tokens. 
They must then provide a description about the token&#39;s purpose. 
They can then select &#39;Create Token&#39; at the bottom of the page to generate and view the Secret and Client ID. 

Refer to [Managing Personal Access Tokens](https://documentation.sailpoint.com/saas/help/common/generate_tokens.html) for more information about PATs.
 
All URIs are relative to *https://sailpoint.api.identitynow.com/v2025*

## patch-personal-access-token
Patch personal access token
This performs a targeted update to the field(s) of a Personal Access Token.
Changing scopes for a Personal Access Token does not impact existing bearer tokens. You will need to create a new bearer token to have the new scopes. Please note that it can take up to 20 minutes for scope changes to be seen on new bearer tokens.
