Access to your organization’s channels requires specific tooling to enable authentication. These tools can be used to issue and/or set access tokens, and help distinguish yourself from other users in the Anaconda ecosystem. There are two types of access tokens your organization can use:
  • Individual access tokens: Your individual access token provides access to use packages from your organization’s channels. Each user in an organization has a unique access token, unless the organization is using a site token for access.
  • Site token: A site token is an access token that is used by the entire organization. This one token can authenticate any organization member. Site tokens are provided to users by organization administrators.
    You do not need to be assigned a seat if your organization is using a site token.

​
Issuing and setting your token

You must be assigned a seat within your organization to issue yourself a token. If you have not been assigned a seat, speak with your organization administrator.
Your organization access token grants conda access to your organization’s channels and packages. To issue and set your token, run the following command: 
anaconda token install
If you belong to more than one organization, you are prompted to select which organization to issue a token for.

​
Reissuing a token

You can reissue a token using anaconda-auth or from your Anaconda.com organization.
Reissuing a token invalidates your previously issued token.
  1. Open Anaconda Prompt (Terminal on macOS/Linux).
  2. Issue and set a new token: 
    anaconda token install
All newly issued tokens are set to expire when your organization’s subscription expires.

​
Synchronizing your token

Tokens have a lifespan that is tied to your organization’s subscription, and expire either 30 days after the organization’s subscription has ended or immediately if the subscription has been cancelled. Renewing your subscription does not automatically extend the lifespan of your token. If you’ve renewed your subscription and want to retain your current token, synchronize your token to extend its lifespan to your organization’s new subscription expiration date. To synchronize your token:
  1. Go to your organization’s page.
  2. Under Org Management, select Token Access.
  3. Select Sync token.

​
Viewing tokens

To view the tokens installed on your system, run the following command: 
anaconda token list
