Features
Personal access token (PAT) APIs to return maximum allowed lifespan
When managing personal access tokens (PATs) through the PAT management APIs, a validTo expiration date can be specified for newly created or updated PATs. If the "Enforce maximum personal access token lifespan" policy is enabled and the specified validTo date exceeds the policy's maximum lifespan limit, the system now automatically adjusts and issues a PAT with the maximum permitted lifespan, rather than producing an error.
Previously, going over the maximum allowed lifespan would cause a PatLifespanPolicyViolation error. This change helps apps and tools that use these APIs handle PAT creation and update errors better when the "maximum personal access token lifespan" policy is enabled.
