# Reveal Tunnel Token

`POST /v1/tunnels/{tunnel_id}/reveal_token?beta=true`

The Tunnels API is in research preview. It requires the `anthropic-beta: mcp-tunnels-2026-06-22` header and may change without a deprecation period. It supersedes the Admin API endpoints at `/v1/organizations/tunnels`, which remain available during a migration window.

Reveals a tunnel's connector token. The value is fetched live on each call; Anthropic does not store it. Repeated calls return the same value until the token is rotated. Exposed as POST so the token does not appear in intermediary access logs.

## Path parameters

- `tunnel_id` string, required

## Headers

- `anthropic-version` string
- `anthropic-beta` string
- `anthropic-workspace-id` string

## Response `200`

Successful response (OK)

- BetaTunnelToken — A tunnel's connector token.
  - `type` 'tunnel_token', required
  - `id` string, required — Stable identifier for the current token value. Changes when the token is rotated.
  - `tunnel_token` string, required — The connector token used to run the tunnel. Treat as a credential.
