Impersonation Token

Themelio compatibility reference. This page describes the retained Themelio implementation or its historical design. Check the parallel-operation guide before applying it to the current platform.

An Impersonation Token is a GitLab token generated by the Themelio backend to communicate with the GitLab API on behalf of a user. These tokens are created during the sign-in process, stored in Valkey keyed by session ID, and injected by middleware as a PRIVATE-TOKEN header into authenticated API requests. They are revoked and cleaned up upon sign-out.
