  Is there a way to programmatically generate/rotate the same?

   

  Thank you

  More generally - how to access/modify the user security parameters - API token, SSH private key etc, via ssh, jenkins cli, rest? 

  Just showing how to do it via GUI is not helpful really.

  Kind regards

  I have written an article of how we an retrieve the token programmatically. 

  Might be helpful to other.

  Post Jenkins 2.189, a non-UI way to generate a new token is:

   

  ```
  curl 'https://jenkins-sandbox.internal.renaissance-golabs.com/me/descriptorByName/jenkins.security.ApiTokenProperty/generateNewToken' \
  --data 'newTokenName=foo' \
  --user username:Password
  ```

  ```
  {
  "status": "ok",
  "data": {
  "tokenName": "foo",
  "tokenUuid": "<uuid>",
  "tokenValue": "<redacted>"
  }
  }
  ```
