  description: >-
    A Tessian portal user with "Logs" permission generates an API Token under
    Integrations > Tessian API in the portal. The token is shown only once at
    creation. It inherits the permissions of the creating user and is
    automatically revoked if that user is removed or loses the Logs permission,
    or when the token is deleted.
