  • Create a join token to provision an endpoint, and assign it to your Cloud Services Portal account.

  • Create a short-lived join token for an admin who wants to join endpoints. When the admin finishes the task, revoke the join token and thus prevent the admin from provisioning new endpoints.

  • Revoke a join token if it has been compromised, to prevent its use in provisioning of new endpoints. Note that join Join tokens are valid until they expire or you revoke them through the Cloud Services Portal or expire.
