# Token

## Overview

The `token` product is used to fetch access tokens for an application

## Token Types

The Twitch CLI provides access to two types of tokens: App Access Tokens and User Access Tokens. 

**App Access Tokens** 

[App Access Tokens](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/#app-access-tokens) can access APIs that don't require the user's permission. For example, getting a list of videos. 

**User Access Tokens** 

[User Access Tokens](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/#user-access-tokens) provide access to APIs a user must grant permission to. For example, starting or stopping a poll. The specific APIs and functionality granted to a token is defined via [scopes](https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/authentication/scopes/).
