Token Generator — Guide

Generate random tokens and strings online — pick the length (1-512) and character set (uppercase, lowercase, digits, symbols). Free, instant, nothing leaves your browser.

What it is and when to use it

A token here is a random string built from a character set you choose — uppercase, lowercase, digits and optional symbols — at any length from 1 to 512. It is handy for temporary passwords, invite codes, placeholder secrets and other non-critical identifiers. The string is generated in the browser from a pseudo-random source: fine for uniqueness, but for security-sensitive secrets (password-reset links, API keys) prefer a cryptographically strong generator that an attacker cannot predict.

Generates a random string from a chosen character set — for temporary passwords and invite codes.

How to use it

  1. Set the length
  2. Tick the character classes you need
  3. Click generate and copy

Things that trip people up

  • This uses a regular random number generator; for security-sensitive cases use the platform cryptographic source

Questions people ask

Are generated tokens sent anywhere?
No. The token is produced locally in your browser and never leaves the page, so nothing is uploaded or logged by this tool.
Can I use this for password-reset tokens or API keys?
For low-stakes cases — a temporary password, an invite code, a test fixture — yes. For anything security-sensitive, use a cryptographically strong source instead: this tool uses a regular random number generator, which is good for uniqueness but not for unpredictability against a determined attacker.
How do I make a token harder to guess?
Increase the length and enable more character classes. Entropy grows with length multiplied by alphabet size, so a longer token that mixes letters, digits and symbols is far harder to brute-force than a short one.
What is a token?
In everyday dev use, a random string that identifies or protects something: a session ID, an invite code, a temporary password. This tool builds them from the character set and length you choose.
