Error: AUTH-401

⚠️ Authentication error occurred - Your saved GitHub token is invalid or has expired.

What happened?

This error occurs when QuickIssue cannot authenticate with GitHub using your saved Personal Access Token (PAT). This usually means:

  • Your token has expired
  • The token was revoked on GitHub
  • The token doesn't have the required permissions (repo scope)

How to fix it

  1. Open QuickIssue Settings (gear icon)
  2. Go to Authentication section
  3. Delete the existing token
  4. Create a new token on GitHub:
    • Go to GitHub Token Settings
    • Click "Generate new token (classic)"
    • Select the repo scope
    • Set a longer expiration if desired
  5. Copy the new token and paste it in QuickIssue

💡 Tip: Set a longer expiration period (90 days or more) to avoid frequent re-authentication.
