+How to update your feedstock token?
+====================================
+To reset your feedstock token and fix issues with uploads, follow these steps:
+
+1. Create a new text file in the ``token_reset`` directory of the ``conda-forge/admin-requests`` repo.
+2. Add the name of your feedstock in the text file. While adding the name, don't add "-feedstock" to the end of it. For example: for ``python-feedstock``, just add ``python``.
+
+See `token_reset/example.txt <https://github.com/conda-forge/admin-requests/blob/main/token_reset/example.txt>`__ for an example.
