## Rotate Tunnel Token

**post** `/v1/tunnels/{tunnel_id}/rotate_token`

The Tunnels API is in research preview. It requires the `anthropic-beta: mcp-tunnels-2026-06-22` header and may change without a deprecation period. It supersedes the Admin API endpoints at `/v1/organizations/tunnels`, which remain available during a migration window.

Rotates a tunnel's connector token. Rotation invalidates the current token for new connections and returns a fresh value; established connections are not severed. A connector restarted after rotation must use the new value.
