+You can use [scoped tokens](/platform/integrations/api#limited-permissions) to send standby requests. This is useful for allowing third-party services to interact with your Actor without granting access to your entire account.

 This way you can be sure that Actors won't accidentally—or intentionally—access any data they shouldn't. However, Actors might not function properly if the scope is not sufficient.

 :::tip
 This restriction is _transitive_, which means that if the Actor runs another Actor, its access will be restricted as well.
