Where should I store an authentication token for a custom integration?

Context: I am building a custom spoke to integrate my company’s ServiceNow instance with an external private API. 

Problem: After using stored credentials to retrieve an authentication token, I need to store this token to be sent with all REST actions. I can’t seem to find a good place to store this. Once it inevitably expires, I will also need to update this value.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

They can be stored in the OAuth Credentials table (oauth_credential).
