   <CodeGroup>
     ```python Python wrap theme={null}
     import base64
     import subprocess
     app\_id = str(input("Enter the APP ID or Worskspace ID: ")).strip()
     app\_key = str(input("Enter the secret key: ")).strip()
     secret\_string = app\_id + ":" + app\_key
     secret\_string\_bytes = secret\_string.encode("ascii")
     base64\_bytes = base64.b64encode(secret\_string\_bytes)
     base64\_string = base64\_bytes.decode("ascii")
     subprocess.run("pbcopy", text=True, input=base64\_string)
     print("Token copied to your clipboard")
     ```
   </CodeGroup>
