Hi,
my
name
is
daniel
moore,
I'm
a
senior
product
designer
with
access-
and
today
I
want
to
talk
about
service
counts
service
accounts
is
a
project.
We've
been
working
on
for
a
while.
This
is
basically
the
next
iteration
of
what
we
already
have
in
terms
of
access
tokens,
specifically
project
access
tokens.
A
A
Let's
see,
I
had
a
project.
Excuse
me
a
bot
token
right
here
this
one
I
created
recently.
A
So
imagine,
if
you
have
you
know,
10
000
members
in
your
group,
it's
kind
of
hard
to
find
that
without
you
know
doing
a
search,
probably
the
optimal
id
would
be
just
drop
it
in
a
sub
item
here.
A
A
And
the
idea
is
that
you
have
a
service
account
section,
be
able
to
create
a
service
account,
give
it
a
name,
give
it
an
avatar,
give
it
some
role
and
you
can
choose
what
kind
of
token
you
give
it
to
your
scopes
and
it
generates
a
token
and
the
idea
is,
you
can
then
make
any
changes.
Add
more
tokens
here.
A
A
Does
this
process
make
sense,
and
so
we
have
a
bit
of
some
updates
in
regards
to
that
we're
looking
at
actually
maybe
improving
the
process.
By
doing
what's,
we
call
unifying
the
tokens,
so
I
spoke
with
serena
here
she's
one
of
our
back-end
engineers,
and
we
had
a
lot
to
discuss
in
regards
to
this
topic
here,
which
is
unified
tokens.
A
So
the
idea
is
that
we
would
unify
our
project
access
tokens,
personal
access,
tokens
deploy
tokens,
and
this
idea
that
we
had
with
group
level,
or
instance,
level
tokens.
This
was
kind
of
like
an
older
topic.
A
You
see
here
it's
been
about
a
year
since
we
were
talking
about
this,
but
the
idea
of
unifying
a
token
is
instead
of
having
all
these
iterations
of
different
tokens,
that
the
feature
would
just
be
one
specific
behavior
or
one
specific
action
to
create
a
token
and
live
in
one
place
in
the
database
and
then
have
service
accounts
work
off
of
that.
So
that
is
the
next
step
in
the
service
accounts.
