Rotate a group access token

Prerequisites:

Rotate a group access token. Revokes the previous token and creates a new token that expires in one week.

In GitLab 16.6 and later, you can use the expires_at parameter to set a different expiry date. This non-default expiry date can be up to a maximum of one year from the rotation date.

POST /groups/:id/access_tokens/:token_id/rotate
Attribute Type required Description
id integer or string yes ID or URL-encoded path of the group
token_id integer yes ID of the access token
expires_at date no Expiration date of the access token in ISO format (YYYY-MM-DD). Introduced in GitLab 16.6.

NOTE: Non-administrators can rotate their own tokens. Administrators can rotate tokens of any user in the group.

curl --request POST --header "PRIVATE-TOKEN: <your_access_token>" "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/groups/<group_id>/access_tokens/<token_id>/rotate"

Example response:

{
    "id": 42,
    "name": "Rotated Token",
    "revoked": false,
    "created_at": "2023-08-01T15:00:00.000Z",
    "scopes": ["api"],
    "user_id": 1337,
    "last_used_at": null,
    "active": true,
    "expires_at": "2023-08-15",
    "access_level": 30,
    "token": "s3cr3t"
}
