api:write

Last verified 7 Aug 2026

Note

api:write is a global alias scope that maps to the Full Access option on the token creation page. It automatically extends to cover new API endpoints as they are added. To grant a token access to specific resources and actions instead, use the Custom Scopes picker.

Required Scopes

To add a scope to an API token, you must also add its required scopes. For example, to add a non-read scope for a resource type, you must also add the read scope for that resource type.

api:write has no additional required scopes.
