## Set your tokens and environment variables
The Electron S3 Bucket in LastPass has environment variables needed for the
release process. If you don't have access to this, make a request similar to
these:
[1](https://github.com/github/security/issues/2660),
[2](https://github.com/github/security/issues/2951)
There are a handful of `*_TOKEN` environment variables needed by the release
scripts. Once you've generated these per-user tokens, you may want to keep
them in a local file that you can `source` when starting a release.
* `ELECTRON_GITHUB_TOKEN`:
Create as described at https://github.com/settings/tokens/new,
giving the token repo access scope.
* `APPVEYOR_TOKEN`:
Create a token from https://windows-ci.electronjs.org/api-token
If you don't have an account, ask a team member to add you.
* `CIRCLE_TOKEN`:
Create a token from "Personal API Tokens" at https://circleci.com/account/api
* `JENKINS_AUTH_TOKEN` and `JENKINS_BUILD_TOKEN`:
Are provided by a Jenkins admin
