Can an Admin see the value of my access tokens?

< 1 min read

No. When you create an access token, only a SHA-256 hash of the token is written to the SAP BTP Credential Store; the connector’s application database holds just the CredStore lookup key. The plaintext token is shown to you exactly once at creation time and is never persisted — not by the connector, not in the Credential Store, and not in any log.

That means after you close the token-creation dialog, no one — including Admins, Metrica support, and Metrica engineering — can retrieve the original value. If you lose it, the only path forward is to revoke the token and create a new one.

An Admin can see that your token exists (its label, creation date, expiry, and revocation status) but cannot see the value.
