# Get a workspace's personal access token policy

> A workspace's rules for its members' personal access tokens: allow_tokens_for_all_workspaces (a token made for every workspace of its owner reaches this one), allow_tokens_for_this_workspace (a token may be made for this workspace alone), require_approval (a token made for this workspace waits for an owner's approval; true unless an owner says, and never for an owner's own token), max_lifetime_days (the longest a token reaching it may last; null for no limit, and a token with an expiry lasts at most 366 days anyway) and forbid_no_expiry (a token that never expires does not reach it).

<div class="g1t-endpoint"><span class="g1t-method" data-method="get">GET</span><code>/workspaces/{workspace}/personal-access-token-policy</code></div>

A token outside the rules keeps working elsewhere and reaches the workspace's public repositories only. Members only.

- **Authentication:** Required. Send an [access token](/reference/api/#authentication) as `Authorization: Bearer`.
- **MCP tool:** [`workspace`](/reference/mcp/#workspace) with `action` `get_token_policy`, and the same inputs
- **Scope:** An access token needs [`workspace:read`](/guides/authentication/#scopes).

## Path parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `workspace` | string | Yes | The workspace's name, e.g. "acme". |

## Example response

A successful request answers `200` with:

## Errors

A failed request answers with one of these statuses and a body like `{"error": {"code": "not_found", "message": "Repository not found."}}`. See [errors](/reference/api/#errors).

| Status | Code | When |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 401 | `unauthenticated` | A token is required, or the one sent is not valid. |
| 403 | `forbidden` | The token is valid but not allowed to do this, such as a member-only change or an agent token outside its repository. |
| 404 | `not_found` | It does not exist, or you cannot see it. |
| 422 | `invalid` | The input is not valid. `message` says which field and why. |
