# ResQ.Storage.PinataOptions.JwtToken

### [ResQ.Storage](./ResQ.Storage.md "ResQ.Storage").[PinataOptions](./ResQ.Storage.PinataOptions.md "ResQ.Storage.PinataOptions")

## PinataOptions.JwtToken Property

Gets or sets the Pinata JWT token for authentication.

```csharp theme={null}
public string? JwtToken { get; set; }
```

#### Property Value

[System.String](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.string "System.String")\
The JWT token string, or null if not using JWT authentication.

### Example

```csharp theme={null}
options.JwtToken = Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("PINATA_JWT");
```

### Remarks

JWT authentication is the preferred method and provides full API access.
Generate a JWT token from your Pinata account dashboard. When provided,
this takes precedence over API key/secret authentication.

Store this value securely (e.g., in environment variables) and never commit
it to source control.
