Authentication

Ably access token bearer discovered Get token ↗

In the Ably dashboard, go to Access tokens. Click Create new token, choose the account, expiry, and capabilities, then click Create token. Copy the token immediately; the full token is shown only once. These tokens authenticate the Control API and can also be used by the Ably CLI via environment-based auth as documented in Access tokens and CLI env docs.
