Add Token Dialog

The Add Token dialog appears when you click the Add Token button on the Preferences page. It lets you create an authorization token (that is, a JSON Web Token known as a JWT) to be used to authenticate calls to Code Insight REST APIs. The token is associated with the user account under which you are logged in or whose password you have changed in the Change Password fields on the Preferences page. The dialog has the following fields:
