# Auth & Access

> Manage database URLs and access tokens for authentication

To connect to your Bunny Database, you'll need your **Database URL** and an **Access Token**. Both can be obtained and managed from the Dashboard.

## Accessing credentials

Navigate to **Dashboard > Edge Platform > Database > \[Select Database] > Access** to view and manage your database connection details.

From this page, you can:

* View your Database URL
* Generate new access tokens
* Regenerate all access tokens
* Copy or download existing tokens

## Database URL

Your Database URL is the endpoint used to connect to your database. It follows this format:

```bash theme={null}
libsql://[your-database-id].lite.bunnydb.net
```

This URL is required by all client libraries and SDKs when establishing a connection to your database.

## Access tokens

Access tokens authenticate your requests to the database. Bunny Database provides two types of tokens:

* **Full Access**: Read and write permissions for all database operations
* **Read Only**: Limited to SELECT queries and read operations only

### Generating new tokens

To create a new access token for an additional application while keeping existing tokens valid:

1. Navigate to **Dashboard > Edge Platform > Database > \[Select Database] > Access**
2. Click **Generate Tokens**
3. New full-access and read-only tokens will be created
4. Copy or download your tokens immediately

<Warning>
  Tokens are only displayed once. If you lose them, you'll need to generate
  another.
</Warning>

### Regenerating tokens

If your tokens are exposed or compromised, regenerate them to invalidate all existing tokens:

1. Navigate to **Dashboard > Edge Platform > Database > \[Select Database] > Access**
2. Click **Regenerate Tokens**
3. All previous tokens will be immediately invalidated
4. New full-access and read-only tokens will be created
5. Copy or download your new tokens immediately

<Warning>
  Regenerating tokens will invalidate **all** existing tokens for all databases.
  Update all applications using the old tokens to prevent connection failures.
</Warning>

## Using credentials with client libraries

Pass your Database URL and access token to the client library when creating a connection:

<CodeGroup>
  ```ts TypeScript highlight={5} theme={null}
  import { createClient } from "@libsql/client/web";

  const client = createClient({
  url: "libsql://[your-database-id].lite.bunnydb.net",
  authToken: "your-access-token",
  });

  ```

  ```rust Rust highlight={5} theme={null}
  use libsql::Builder;

  let db = Builder::new_remote(
      "libsql://[your-database-id].lite.bunnydb.net".to_string(),
      "your-access-token".to_string(),
  )
  .build()
  .await?;
  ```

  ```go Go highlight={3} theme={null}
  import _ "github.com/tursodatabase/libsql-client-go/libsql"

  url := "libsql://[your-database-id].lite.bunnydb.net?authToken=your-access-token"
  db, err := sql.Open("libsql", url)
  ```

  ```csharp .NET highlight={6} theme={null}
  using Libsql.Client;

  var client = DatabaseClient.Create(opts =>
  {
      opts.Url = "libsql://[your-database-id].lite.bunnydb.net";
      opts.AuthToken = "your-access-token";
  });
  ```
</CodeGroup>

## Using credentials with HTTP API

When making direct HTTP requests to the database API endpoint (`/v2/pipeline`), include your access token as a Bearer token in the Authorization header:

```bash highlight={2} theme={null}
curl -X POST https://[your-database-id].lite.bunnydb.net/v2/pipeline \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer your-access-token" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "requests": [
      {
        "type": "execute",
        "stmt": {
          "sql": "SELECT * FROM users"
        }
      }
    ]
  }'
```

## Using credentials with Magic Containers and Edge Scripting

When you add database credentials to a [Magic Container](/database/connect/magic-containers) or [Edge Script](/database/connect/scripting), they are automatically available as environment variables:

* `BUNNY_DATABASE_URL`: Your database URL
* `BUNNY_DATABASE_AUTH_TOKEN`: Your access token

Access them in your code like any other environment variable:

```bash theme={null}
process.env.BUNNY_DATABASE_URL
```
