Hi @Misha Leong,

I'm not sure if this will make a difference, but are you pasting in the User Token or using the User token marker?

The marker is located in the dropdown. What I noticed is that it is formatted differently even though it's the same token... maybe that makes a difference 🤷‍♀️​
Let me know if it makes a difference 👍

The smaller token it inserts still has the same first 10 alphanumeric characters of my regular user token but the rest are different.
