# Personal access tokens API **(FREE)**
You can read more about [personal access tokens](../user/profile/personal_access_tokens.md#personal-access-tokens).
## List personal access tokens
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/227264) in GitLab 13.3.
> - [Moved](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/270200) from GitLab Ultimate to GitLab Free in 13.6.
Get a list of personal access tokens.
```plaintext
GET /personal_access_tokens

Administrators can use the `user_id` parameter to filter by a user. Non-administrators cannot filter by any user except themselves. Attempting to do so will result in a `401 Unauthorized` response.
