Generate a Personal Access Token

Personal Access Tokens authenticate a single Harvest user for API access.

1

Sign in to the Harvest Developers portal

2

Create a new token

Click Create new personal access token to open the New personal access token form.

  • Enter a recognisable Name for the token (e.g., StackOne Integration).
  • Click Create personal access token.
3

Choose the Harvest account

If you belong to multiple Harvest accounts, you must pick which one this token authenticates.

  • Under Your personal access token, locate the Choose account dropdown.
  • Select the Harvest account this connection should access.
  • The displayed Account ID and API Token below will update to match the chosen account.
4

Copy the API Token and Account ID

The token is shown once on the confirmation page along with your Account ID.

  • Copy the API Token value (shown in the portal as Your token). This is the value you’ll paste into the Personal Access Token field when connecting Harvest in the StackOne Hub.
  • Copy the Account ID value shown alongside the token (a number such as 1234567).
  • Store both values securely for use later — the token is not shown again after this page is closed.

Linking the Account from the Hub

1

Navigate to the Hub

Use one of the three Linking Account Methods to access the Hub.
2

Fill out the fields

Fill out the following fields using details from your provider:
  • Personal Access Token
  • Account ID
  • User-Agent
3

Connect

  • Click Connect
  • If applicable, the provider will redirect you to a sign-in or authorization page. Complete the provider’s authorization flow.
  • Once authorization is successful, you will see a confirmation popup

If the account linking is successful, you will see the newly linked account in your Accounts page.
