How security tokens work
When creating a new project, you must choose to generate a new security token or specify an existing FoTT security token. Security tokens are used for encryption of your project's protected information and required to open it.
Your project's security token is identified by it's unique name. You can view your project's security token's name by going to Project Settings:
You can view all of your security tokens by going to Application Settings:
Additional details
Security tokens are stored in your browser's local storage. You should manually save security tokens to another storage (e.g. a .txt file on your local file system) before clearing your browser's cache. Otherwise, you'll lose your security tokens and won't be able to open your projects. After clearing your browser's cache, you'll then need to manually re-add the saved security tokens through Application Settings
In order to open an existing project that was created using another browser, it's security token must first be added to the new browser. FoTT's project sharing feature adds the shared project's security token to the new browser for you automatically and is the recommended way to share project's across browsers.
