API tokens in Cloudflare are used to grant programmatic access to Cloudflare's services. They allow you to automate tasks such as managing DNS records, deploying Workers, configuring SSL certificates, and accessing analytics data without needing to use your global API key or account credentials. This enhances security by allowing you to create tokens with specific, limited permissions.
