User guide

Sign in

Open the service and choose Login with JSC Login. You are sent to the identity provider and back. The first sign-in creates your account; your name and (verified) email address are taken from the identity provider.

If the page says your account has been disabled, an administrator deleted it. Signing in again does not recreate it: ask an administrator to restore it.

Create a token

On the dashboard, enter a name that tells you later where the token is used (for example laptop scripts or CI pipeline), pick an expiry date and choose Create Token.

The token is shown once

Copy it immediately with Copy (or reveal it with View). The service stores only a keyed hash and cannot show the value again. If you lose it, rotate the token or create a new one.

Tokens look like blablador- followed by 64 hexadecimal characters. The expiry date can be at most the configured maximum (365 days by default) in the future.

Use a token

Send the token as a bearer credential, the way OpenAI-compatible clients send an API key:

curl https://<blablador-api>/v1/models \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer $BLABLADOR_TOKEN"

Keep tokens out of source code, URLs, logs and chat messages; use your tool's secret store or an environment variable.

Manage your tokens

The table lists each token's name, creation time, last use (updated at most once a minute), expiry and status. Times are shown in your browser's time zone.

Action What happens Use it when
Renew Moves the expiry date; the token value stays the same. Also works for expired tokens. A token you still control is about to expire.
Rotate Replaces the value; the old value stops working immediately. The new value is shown once. A token may have leaked, or as routine hygiene.
Revoke The token stops working at once; it stays listed as Revoked. You no longer need it, or it leaked.
Delete Removes a revoked token from the list. Cleaning up.
Revoke All Tokens and Sessions Revokes every token you own and signs out all your browser sessions. You suspect your account or a device is compromised.

Rotating an expired token needs a new expiry date: renew it first, or create a new token.

If a token leaked

Rotate or revoke it right away, then check Last Used for activity you do not recognise. Renewing does not help: it keeps the leaked value.

There is a limit on how many tokens one account can hold (100 by default, counting revoked and expired ones). Delete revoked tokens you no longer need.

Sign out

Logout ends the session on the server, so a copied session cookie stops working too. Sessions also end on their own after at most 24 hours (one hour for administrators).
