### Service Token V3 (Beta)
|
||||
|
||||
Service Token V3 (ST V3) is a new and improved authentication method that is in beta.
|
||||
|
||||
<Note>
|
||||
Currently, the Service Token V3 authentication method can only be used with the latest [Node SDK](https://github.com/Infisical/infisical-node) and [Python SDK](https://github.com/Infisical/infisical-python).
|
||||
You can also make an API call with it to create, read, update, or delete secrets.
|
||||
|
||||
We will be releasing compatibility for it with the CLI and K8s operator in the coming month.
|
||||
|
||||
That said, we recommend using ST V3 whenever possible.
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
Here's a few pointers to get you acquainted with it:
|
||||
|
||||
- When you create a ST V3, you export a `JSON` file containing 3 components: `publicKey`, `privateKey`, and `serviceToken` where
|
||||
`serviceToken` is a JWT token prefixed with `stv3`. The token provides access to the Infisical API and the public-private key
|
||||
pairs are to support cryptographic operations for the client whenever E2EE is needed.
|
||||
- ST V3 supports IP allowlisting; this means you can restrict the usage of a ST V3 to a specific IP or CIDR range.
|
||||
- ST V3 supports provisioning granular `read` or `readWrite` access down to each path.
|
||||
- ST V3 supports toggling on/off active states, so you can render a ST V3 inactive without deleting it.
|
||||
- ST V3 supports expiration, so, if specified, a token will automatically turn inactive after a period of time.
|
||||
- ST V3 tracks most recent usage; it also keeps track of each token's usage count.
|
||||
- ST V3 is editable.
|
||||
You can manage service tokens in Project Settings > Service Tokens.

Each service token can be provisioned scoped access to select environment(s) and path(s) within them.

|

Here's a few pointers to get you acquainted with it:
|
||||
|
||||
- When you create a ST, you get a token prefixed with `st`. The part after the last `.` delimiter is a symmetric key; everything
|
||||
before it is an access token. When authenticating with the Infisical API, it is important to send in only the access token portion
|
||||
of the token.
|
||||
- ST supports expiration; it gets deleted automatically upon expiration.
|
||||
- ST supports provisioning `read` and/or `write` permissions broadly applied to all accessible environment(s) and path(s).
|
||||
- ST is not editable.

||||

**FAQ**
|
||||
|
||||
<AccordionGroup>
|
||||
<Accordion title="Why is the Infisical API rejecting my service token?">
|
||||
There are a few reasons for why this might happen:
|
||||
|
||||
- The service token has expired.
|
||||
- The service token is insufficently permissioned to interact with the secrets in the given environment and path.
|
||||
- You are attempting to access a `/raw` secrets endpoint that requires your project to disable E2EE.
|
||||
- (If using ST V3) The service token has not been activated yet.
|
||||
- (If using ST V3) The service token is being used from an untrusted IP.

||||
</Accordion>
|
||||
<Accordion title="Can you provide examples for using glob patterns?">
|
||||
1. `/**`: This pattern matches all folders at any depth in the directory structure. For example, it would match folders like `/folder1/`, `/folder1/subfolder/`, and so on.
|
||||
|
||||
2. `/*`: This pattern matches all immediate subfolders in the current directory. It does not match any folders at a deeper level. For example, it would match folders like `/folder1/`, `/folder2/`, but not `/folder1/subfolder/`.
|
||||
|
||||
3. `/*/*`: This pattern matches all subfolders at a depth of two levels in the current directory. It does not match any folders at a shallower or deeper level. For example, it would match folders like `/folder1/subfolder/`, `/folder2/subfolder/`, but not `/folder1/` or `/folder1/subfolder/subsubfolder/`.
|
||||
|
||||
4. `/folder1/*`: This pattern matches all immediate subfolders within the `/folder1/` directory. It does not match any folders outside of `/folder1/`, nor does it match any subfolders within those immediate subfolders. For example, it would match folders like `/folder1/subfolder1/`, `/folder1/subfolder2/`, but not `/folder2/subfolder/`.
