FRCAPI Separate authorization token   
I'm working on a Google Sheets spreadsheet to perform some calculations and predictions, and have scripted a method to 
update the match data via the FRC Event API.  This spreadsheet may be shared by a few members on the team, and I'm just 
not clear if it's appropriate to use my own username and default token in the sheet for these updates, or if I should 
get another token separate from my own "personal" token.

Re: FRCAPI Separate authorization token   
If the token will only be used by you/your team, and not distributed publicly, it's fine to leave it in your sheet/
script. If it's going to be distributed though, it should be removed and instead prompt the user to enter their personal
 token (so that yours doesn't inadvertently get disabled)
