While the Core API issues and validates tokens as part of OAuth/OIDC protocol flows, the Management API lets you operate on issued tokens directly — outside the flows. Typical use cases include building an administration screen, revoking tokens when a user reports a stolen device, or migrating tokens from an existing authorization server.

Token Operation APIs

APIPurpose
/auth/token/get/listList issued tokens. You can filter by client and end-user (subject).
/auth/token/createCreate an access token without going through an authorization flow. Useful for migration or testing.
/auth/token/updateUpdate properties of an issued token, such as its expiration date and scopes.
/auth/token/revokeRevoke tokens. You can revoke by token identifier, or revoke all tokens of a client or an end-user at once.
/auth/token/deleteDelete a token entry itself from the database.
Revocation initiated by a client application (RFC 7009) is part of the protocol flows and is handled by the Core API /auth/revocation. The token operation APIs above are for administrative operations performed by your server or back-office tools.

Relation to Client and Service Lifecycle

Token lifecycle is tied to the entities that issued them:
