Display part of the Personal Access Token (PAT) in UI

Tell us about your request

Identifying which access token corresponds to which “name” in Docker Hub is frustrating. Token names alone aren’t enough—most users don’t keep a separate record of name-to-value mappings. Because the UI hides the token itself, you’re forced to store name–token pairs elsewhere, making it nearly impossible to tell later which token has expired or is causing errors when you have multiple tokens in use. To solve this without compromising security, the UI should display a short, masked snippet of each token (for example, the first or last four characters) next to its name. That way you can instantly recognize which token your scripts are using—and quickly troubleshoot or rotate the expired ones—without revealing the full secret.

Which service(s) is this request for? Docker Hub
