There are three different types of legacy tokens:

- **Read-only**: You can use these tokens to download packages from the registry. These tokens are best for automation and workflows where you are installing packages. For greater security, we recommend using [granular access tokens](#about-granular-access-tokens) instead.

-You can create up to 1000 granular access tokens on your npm account. You can set how long your token is valid for, at least one day in the future. Each token can access up to 50 organizations, and up to either 50 packages, 50 scopes, or a combination of 50 packages and scopes. Access tokens are tied to users’ permission; hence it cannot have more permission than the user at any point in time. If a user has their access revoked from a package or an org., their granular access token also will have its access revoked from those packages or org.
