New API Tokens UI

What's this blog post about?

InfluxDB Cloud has updated its API tokens UI to conform with industry best practices for token generation and retrieval. After generating a token, users must immediately store it in a secure vault of their choosing. The token value itself becomes hidden after initial viewing, but other information such as creation date, creator, last usage, and permissions remain visible. Users can now create all-access or custom API tokens by selecting any combination of resources within the InfluxDB Cloud user interface. They can also filter across buckets, Telegraf configurations, and other resources using a search box on the creation and edit overlays.
