# F.4 - How to update the provision token

**For security reasons and to ensure continuous provisioning, your provision token must be renewed once a year. This article explains how to proceed.**

#### **💡 Key Information**

How do I know when to renew the provision token?  
Timly notifies you when your provision token needs to be renewed.

  
Who receives provision token renewal notifications?  
Notification e-mails are sent to the **primary** administrator of your Timly account.

  
When should the provision token be renewed?  
**Your provision token should be renewed before its expiration date; otherwise, the provisioning will be automatically interrupted**. To help you anticipate this, notifications are sent at the following times:  
\- 2 months before the token’s expiration date  
\- 1 month before the token’s expiration date  
\- 10 days before the token’s expiration date

#### **🚨 Important Information**

\- Only **renew the token if you are able to immediately update it** in Microsoft Entra ID. **Otherwise, provisioning will be automatically stopped**.  
\- If provisioning is activated for both **Users and Persons**, you have two enterprise applications configured in your Identity Provider. You need to **replace the token in both applications** (typically called: 1) “**Timly**” and 2) “**Timly Person Provisioning**”).
