Action
Create Edge Config Token
Tool to create a new token for a specific edge config. use when you need a read-only access token after provisioning your edge config.
Why this helps
Creating tokens requires account settings navigation and understanding of access scopes. This administrative overhead often gets delayed, blocking team members from needed access.
- Generate tokens without visiting Vercel settings
- Grant team members access faster
- Audit trail of token creation in Slack
- Simplified access management
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Vercel integrations to Notis.
- 2Create a new automation named 'Create Edge Config Token'.
- 3Set the trigger to 'Direct Message Received'.
- 4Write the prompt: 'When I DM asking for an edge config token, create one and send me the details.'
- 5Select your notification channel and test by DMing 'Create an edge config token for my staging environment'.
Questions about this workflow
Are these tokens read-only?
Yes, edge config tokens are read-only by design. Full access requires Vercel account tokens.
Can I revoke tokens?
Yes, delete edge config tokens using a separate automation or directly in Vercel.
How do team members use the token?
Share the token via secure channel (password manager, encrypted message). They use it to read edge config values from their applications.
