I am using API tokens as the authentication method to connect to the Jira API. Could you please tell me if the API tokens generated have a validity. If so after how much time do they expire?

Hi Smita,

The API tokens generated at id.atlassian.com do not have an expiration timer.

You can generate multiple API tokens and revoke any of them whenever you want.

A useful article about API tokes is this documentation.
