Personal Access Token

Does anyone else struggle with the personal access tokens?

We have used these on our project for a while now, but as of yesterday using the token redirects to the login page of Gitlab. Has anything changed in the way it should be used, or did it break during an update maybe?

If any one has some answers for me, that would be really appreciated!

Hello! Some changes were made regarding the use of personal access tokens as per the latest release that may have affected your project. You can find more information here: https://about.gitlab.com/2018/11/28/security-release-gitlab-11-dot-5-dot-1-released/

Hopefully this answers your question! Let me know if you need anything else :slight_smile:

Thanks for the response, couldn’t find the release notes when i searched for them with a quick google.

Managed to fix our problems by using the API now with the Personal Access Token, requires an extra step to dynamicly aquire the project id, but the problem is solved :ok_hand:

Awesome, glad you managed to fix it, and thanks for letting us know!

Hi everyone, Utkarsh here.I had added a personal access token with read and write registry scopes in GitLab while working on a project but now I want to change the scope which should include API as well. So is there any way by which I can change the scope of my existing token or have to make a new one? If I have to make a new one how to add it to my project?
