 Before running CLI commands or making HTTP API requests, you must provide a valid token to authenticate.
 The mechanism for providing your token depends on the client you use to interact with {{% product-name %}}--for example:

+When using the `influxdb3` CLI, you can use the `--token` option to provide your authorization token.

+```bash
+# Include the --token option in your influxdb3 command

 ```bash
 # Export your token as an environment variable
