# How to get your Deel Access Token: Step-by-step guide
------
_August 26, 2023_


When connecting Deel to other platforms, authentication requires an Access Token.

Follow these step-by-step instructions to generate one from your Deel account, or provide them to your customers if they need to connect their account.

**Generating Access Tokens**

1. Navigate to **Apps & Integrations > Developer Center**.
2. Select the type of Token, whether Organization or Personal. The former ties the keys to the whole organization while the latter ties the keys to an individual - token will expire once this person leaves the company.

1. Add a token name and click on the **Next** button.

1. In the popup, select the scopes for the access token and click **Generate**.
`people:read` , `organizations:read`, `payslips:read`, `time-off:read`
2. Make sure to copy and save your newly generated token because you won't be able to see it again!

Generating a Deel Access Token is the first step. The harder part is building pipelines that stay reliable as customers add more systems.
