To keep your account and packages secure, we strongly recommend revoking (deleting) tokens you no longer need or that have been compromised. You can revoke any token you have created.
Note: While access tokens are not derived from your password, changing your password will invalidate all of your tokens. You can also invalidate a single token by logging out on a machine that is logged in with that token. We recommend revoking rather than invalidating tokens.

Note: You must use the token ID to delete a token, not the truncated version of the token. In some cases, there may be a delay of up to an hour before a token is successfully revoked.
