There needs to be a way to create multiple Rest API keys with role based access.

Giving unlimited admin API access to a developer that only needs to list webinars does not meet our security needs.&nbsp;

We have distributed administration among several departments under one tenant. Not all admins need full permissions. Please see example from GitHub.

You’ll find it under Personal Access tokens:&nbsp;[https://github.com/settings/tokens](https://github.com/settings/tokens)

But you probably need generate one to&nbsp;see the scope list. Should find a list here, too:&nbsp;[https://developer.github.com/apps/building-integrations/setting-up-and-registering-oauth-apps/&nbsp;](https://developer.github.com/apps/building-integrations/setting-up-and-registering-oauth-apps/%C2%A0)

Cheers.
