Authorizations

List them:

$ heroku authorizations
Amazing                        9e3a4063-b833-432e-ad75-4b0d7195be13  global
Heroku CLI                     676cb46c-7597-4be1-8a6a-f87b9f2f1065  global

Creating

You can create a special user-created authorization against your account that will come with an access token which doesn't expire:

$ heroku authorizations:create --description "For use with Anvil"
Created OAuth authorization.
  ID:          105a7bfa-34c3-476e-873a-b1ac3fdc12fb
  Description: For use with Anvil
  Token:       4cee516c-f8c6-4f14-9edf-fc6ef09cedc5
  Scope:       global

You can also pass in short output format to only output the token.

$ heroku authorizations:create --output-format short
nec6a9b6-b21a-4ba1-il95-70zd47e14c4d

Another option allows for tokens that expire. This token expires in 10 seconds.

$ heroku authorizations:create --expires-in 10
Created OAuth authorization.
  Client:      <none>
  ID:          2231biha6-5b1e-4268-ba04-2ee7b74m2gf6
  Description: Long-lived user authorization
  Scope:       global
  Token:       9aa5d667-fg37-4028-8dc9-b2191b5z5966

A combination of short format and expires-in can be handy to pass into a job that needs access to heroku:

$ heroku run "HEROKU_EMAIL=`heroku auth:whoami` HEROKU_API_KEY=`heroku authorizations:create --expires-in 120 --output-format short` ./my_job.sh" -a myapp

Optionally, you can specify a list of scopes for the authorization:

$ heroku authorizations:create --description "For use with Anvil" --scope identity,read-protected
Created OAuth authorization.
  ID:          105a7bfa-34c3-476e-873a-b1ac3fdc12fb
  Description: For use with Anvil
  Token:       4cee516c-f8c6-4f14-9edf-fc6ef09cedc5
  Scope:       identity, read-protected

The procured token can now be used like an API key:

$ curl -u ":4cee516c-f8c6-4f14-9edf-fc6ef09cedc5" https://api.heroku.com/apps

Revoking

Any authorization on your account can be revoked at any time:

$ heroku authorizations:revoke 105a7bfa-34c3-476e-873a-b1ac3fdc12fb
Revoked authorization from "Another App".
