# Atlassian account: create an API token with scopes — Account settings → Security → Create and manage API tokens → Create API token with scopes

## Steps
1. Select the profile avatar in the upper-right of the top navigation bar and choose "Account settings".
2. On the Atlassian account page, select the "Security" tab.
3. Select "Create and manage API tokens".
4. Select "Create API token with scopes".
5. Enter a name and an expiry date for the token, then select "Next".
6. Select the target app (e.g. Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket), then "Next".
7. Select the scopes (permissions) the token needs, then "Next".
8. Review and select "Create token".
9. Copy the generated token.

## End state
The token appears in the "Create and manage API tokens" list with its name, expiry date, and app/scope summary; the token value itself is shown only at creation.
