# oz0 token create

> Create a join token; nodes that use it are accepted without approval, into its tenant only.

For: Operators and developers looking up a command.

Create a join token; nodes that use it are accepted without approval, into its tenant only.

A token is bounded: by default it admits one node and lasts 24 hours. --max-uses takes 1 to 1000 and --ttl at most 720h (30 days); 0 is refused, since a token is never unlimited and never lasts forever.

## Usage

```bash
oz0 token create [flags]
```
