Launchpad itself

OAuth token generated for tofono in Launchpad

Asked by tofono

I received the following message:

"A new OAuth token consumer was enabled in Launchpad.
If you did not make this change, please open a new Question on Launchpad <https://answers.launchpad.net/launchpad/+addquestion> or visit #launchpad on IRC at irc.libera.chat to alert staff of the issue."

I wanted to know if the OAuth token carries personal data and if this, if any, will be deleted and if the token will self cancel and deactivate.
Thank you.

OAuth tokens are used to access your Launchpad account on your behalf. If you haven't directly created one, did you log in to any tool/application like the Snap store or the Ubuntu Software center using your Launchpad account to make a purchase or for any other purposes? If yes, that could be the reason why you got this email notification.

If you haven't done any of these, you can go to https://launchpad.net/~tofono/+oauth-tokens to revoke the authorization for the OAuth token(s) in question.

I authorized this OAuth tokens but for an hour and I verified that the data was sent correctly. Does the OAuth tokens disable itself or do I still have to disable it? In this case all the data sent are deleted, even those useful for the solution of the problem? For me it is a new tool for this I ask for more detailed information.
Thank you.

The OAuth token should have expired automatically. You can check the active tokens at https://launchpad.net/~tofono/+oauth-tokens and revoke the ones that you do not need any more.

Can you help with this problem?

Provide an answer of your own, or ask tofono for more information if necessary.
