API tokens & “Submitted” (approval)
Create tokens for AI assistants (MCP) and the REST API – changes only after approval.
Goal
An AI assistant may make suggestions, but a person decides: you review every change under “Submitted”.
Prerequisites
- Permissions “API & MCP” and “review submitted changes”.
Step by step
Transcript: every step matches one subtitle in the video.
- API & MCP: access for automations and AI assistants such as Claude.
- “Änderungen: Zur Freigabe” (for approval) – a person checks every change before it goes live.
- The token is shown only once – copy it to your password manager right away (blurred here).
- When the assistant now changes something, it lands in KLXM Ai › Eingereicht (submitted).
- Check the origin (token, channel) and before/after – then “Übernehmen” (apply) or “Ablehnen” (reject).
- Every submission stays logged. Tokens can be switched or revoked at any time.
Commands & configuration
# MCP-Server in Claude Code verbinden (Token aus dem Passwortmanager)
claude mcp add --transport http mycms https://www.ihre-website.de/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer cms_IHR_TOKEN"
Tips & pitfalls
Tip
“Read only” is enough for reports and checks.
Tip
Optional: “valid until” limits a token in time.
Watch out
Never put tokens in emails, tickets or code repositories – treat them like passwords.
Watch out
Existing tokens stay on “apply directly” until you switch them.
