Deploy tokens allow to download (through `git clone`), or read the container registry images of a project without the need of having a user and a password.
Please note, that the expiration of deploy tokens happens on the date you define,
at midnight UTC and that they can be only managed by [masters](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/permissions.html).
## Creating a personal access token
You can create as many deploy tokens as you like from the settings of your project:
1. Log in to your GitLab account.
1. Go to the project you want to create Deploy Tokens for.
1. Go to **Settings** > **Repository**
1. Click on "Expand" on **Deploy Tokens** section
1. Choose a name and optionally an expiry date for the token.
1. Choose the [desired scopes](#limiting-scopes-of-a-deploy-token).
1. Click on **Create deploy token**.
1. Save the deploy token somewhere safe. Once you leave or refresh
the page, **you won't be able to access it again**.
