# User Applications

This article explains the procedure to create your own user applications.

Applications are used for API integrations with NVIDIA Run:ai. An application contains a client ID and a client secret. With the client credentials, you can obtain a token as detailed in [API authentication](https://run-ai-docs.nvidia.com/api/2.23/getting-started/how-to-authenticate-to-the-api) and use it within subsequent API calls.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**

* All clusters in the tenant must be version 2.20 and onward.
* The token obtained through user applications assumes the [roles and permissions](/self-hosted/2.23/infrastructure-setup/authentication/roles.md) of the user.
  {% endhint %}

## Creating Applications

To create an application:

1. Click the user avatar at the top right corner, then select **Settings**
2. Click **+APPLICATION**
3. Enter the application’s **name**
4. Click **CREATE**
5. Copy the **Client ID** and **Client secret** and store securely
6. Click **DONE**

You can create up to 20 user applications.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**

The client secret is visible only at the time of creation. It cannot be recovered but can be regenerated.
{% endhint %}

## Regenerating a Client Secret

To regenerate a client secret:

1. Locate the application you want to regenerate its client secret
2. Click **Regenerate client secret**
3. Click **REGENERATE**
4. Copy the **New client secret** and store it securely
5. Click **DONE**

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important**

Regenerating a client secret revokes the previous one.
{% endhint %}

## Deleting an Application

1. Locate the application you want to delete
2. Click on the trash icon
3. On the dialog, click **DELETE** to confirm

## Using API

Go to the [User Applications](https://run-ai-docs.nvidia.com/api/2.23/authentication-and-authorization/user-applications) API reference to view the available actions.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://run-ai-docs.nvidia.com/self-hosted/2.23/settings/user-settings/user-applications.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
