The /acl/token endpoints manage Consul's ACL Policies.
---
-> **1.4.0+:** The APIs are available in Consul versions 1.4.0 and later. The documentation for the legacy ACL API is [here](/api/acl/legacy.html)
# ACL Token HTTP API
The `/acl/token` endpoints [create](#create-a-token), [read](#read-a-token),
[update](#update-a-token), [list](#list-tokens), [clone](#clone-a-token) and [delete](#delete-a-token) ACL policies in Consul.
For more information about ACLs, please see the [ACL Guide](/docs/guides/acl.html).
## Create a Token
This endpoint creates a new ACL token.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `PUT` | `/acl/token` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/features/blocking.html),
[consistency modes](/api/features/consistency.html),
[agent caching](/api/features/caching.html), and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#authentication).
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | Agent Caching | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------- | ------------ |
| `NO` | `none` | `none` | `acl:write` |
### Parameters
- `AccessorID` `(string: "")` - Specifies a UUID to use as the token's Accessor ID.
If not specified a UUID will be generated for this field. Added in v1.5.0.
- `SecretID` `(string: "")` - Specifies a UUID to use as the token's Secret ID.
If not specified a UUID will be generated for this field. Added in v1.5.0.
**Note**: The SecretID is used to authorize operations against Consul and should
be generated from an appropriate cryptographic source.
- `Description` `(string: "")` - Free form human readable description of the token.
- `Policies` `(array<PolicyLink>)` - The list of policies that should
be applied to the token. A PolicyLink is an object with an "ID" and/or "Name" field
to specify a policy. With the PolicyLink, tokens can be linked to policies either by the
policy name or by the policy ID. When policies are linked by name they will be
internally resolved to the policy ID. With linking tokens internally by IDs,
Consul enables policy renaming without breaking tokens.
- `Local` `(bool: false)` - If true, indicates that the token should not be replicated
globally and instead be local to the current datacenter.
### Sample Payload
```json
{
"Description": "Agent token for 'node1'",
"Policies": [
{
"ID": "165d4317-e379-f732-ce70-86278c4558f7"
},
{
"Name": "node-read"
}
],
"Local": false
}
```
### Sample Request
```text
$ curl \
--request PUT \
--data @payload.json \
http://127.0.0.1:8500/v1/acl/token
```
### Sample Response
```json
{
"AccessorID": "6a1253d2-1785-24fd-91c2-f8e78c745511",
"SecretID": "45a3bd52-07c7-47a4-52fd-0745e0cfe967",
"Description": "Agent token for 'node1'",
"Policies": [
{
"ID": "165d4317-e379-f732-ce70-86278c4558f7",
"Name": "node1-write"
},
{
"ID": "e359bd81-baca-903e-7e64-1ccd9fdc78f5",
"Name": "node-read"
}
],
"Local": false,
"CreateTime": "2018-10-24T12:25:06.921933-04:00",
"Hash": "UuiRkOQPRCvoRZHRtUxxbrmwZ5crYrOdZ0Z1FTFbTbA=",
"CreateIndex": 59,
"ModifyIndex": 59
}
```
## Read a Token
This endpoint reads an ACL token with the given Accessor ID.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `GET` | `/acl/token/:AccessorID` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/features/blocking.html),
[consistency modes](/api/features/consistency.html),
[agent caching](/api/features/caching.html), and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#authentication).
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | Agent Caching | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------- | ------------ |
| `YES` | `all` | `none` | `acl:read` |
### Parameters
- `AccessorID` `(string: <required>)` - Specifies the accessor ID of the ACL token to
read. This is required and is specified as part of the URL path.
### Sample Request
```text
$ curl -X GET http://127.0.0.1:8500/v1/acl/token/6a1253d2-1785-24fd-91c2-f8e78c745511
```
### Sample Response
-> **Note** If the token used for accessing the API has `acl:write` permissions,
then the `SecretID` will contain the tokens real value. Only when accessed with
a token with only `acl:read` permissions will the `SecretID` be redacted. This
is to prevent privilege escalation whereby having `acl:read` privileges allows
for reading other secrets which given even more permissions.
```json
{
"AccessorID": "6a1253d2-1785-24fd-91c2-f8e78c745511",
"SecretID": "<hidden>",
"Description": "Agent token for 'node1'",
"Policies": [
{
"ID": "165d4317-e379-f732-ce70-86278c4558f7",
"Name": "node1-write"
},
{
"ID": "e359bd81-baca-903e-7e64-1ccd9fdc78f5",
"Name": "node-read"
}
],
"Local": false,
"CreateTime": "2018-10-24T12:25:06.921933-04:00",
"Hash": "UuiRkOQPRCvoRZHRtUxxbrmwZ5crYrOdZ0Z1FTFbTbA=",
"CreateIndex": 59,
"ModifyIndex": 59
}
```
## Read Self Token
This endpoint returns the ACL token details that matches the secret ID
specified with the `X-Consul-Token` header or the `token` query parameter.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `GET` | `/acl/token/self` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/features/blocking.html),
[consistency modes](/api/features/consistency.html),
[agent caching](/api/features/caching.html), and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#authentication).
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | Agent Caching | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------- | ------------ |
| `YES` | `all` | `none` | `none` |
-> **Note** - This endpoint requires no specific privileges as it is just
retrieving the data for a token that you must already possess its secret.
### Sample Request
```text
$ curl -H "X-Consul-Token: 6a1253d2-1785-24fd-91c2-f8e78c745511" \

}
```
## Update a Token
This endpoint updates an existing ACL token.
| Method | Path | Produces |
| ------ | ---------------------------- | -------------------------- |
| `PUT` | `/acl/token/:AccessorID` | `application/json` |
The table below shows this endpoint's support for
[blocking queries](/api/features/blocking.html),
[consistency modes](/api/features/consistency.html),
[agent caching](/api/features/caching.html), and
[required ACLs](/api/index.html#authentication).
| Blocking Queries | Consistency Modes | Agent Caching | ACL Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------- | ------------- | ------------ |
| `NO` | `none` | `none` | `acl:write` |
### Parameters
- `AccessorID` `(string: "")` - Specifies the accessor ID of the token being updated. This is
required in the URL path but may also be specified in the JSON body. If specified
in both places then they must match exactly. This field is immutable. If not present in
the body and only in the URL then it will be filled in by Consul.
- `SecretID` `(string: "")` - Specifies the secret ID of the token being updated. This field is
immutable so if present in the body then it must match the existing value. If not present
then the value will be filled in by Consul.
- `Description` `(string: "")` - Free form human readable description of this token.
- `Policies` `(array<PolicyLink>)` - This is the list of policies that should
be applied to this token. A PolicyLink is an object with an "ID" and/or "Name" field
to specify a policy. With this tokens can be linked to policies either by the
policy name or by the policy ID. When policies are linked by name they will
internally be resolved to the policy ID. With linking tokens internally by IDs,
Consul enables policy renaming without breaking tokens.
- `Local` `(bool: false)` - If true, indicates that this token should not be replicated
globally and instead be local to the current datacenter. This value must match the
existing value or the request will return an error.
### Sample Payload
```json
{
"Description": "Agent token for 'node1'",
