Authorization: Bearer <credential>

Sign in to YNAB Account Settings, open Developer Settings, then under Personal Access Tokens click New Token, enter your password, and copy the token. YNAB says the token is shown only once, does not expire automatically, and can be revoked later from the same page.

YNAB OAuth access token oauth2 discovered Set up OAuth ↗

To use YNAB on behalf of other users, sign in to YNAB Account Settings, open Developer Settings, and create an OAuth application. Use that app's OAuth flow to obtain user access tokens. New OAuth applications start in restricted mode and are limited to 25 non-owner access tokens until you request review using YNAB's form linked from the API docs.
