# Authorize App

By default, our system uses short-lived API tokens for generating documents, which work well for most use cases.

However, if you encounter issues with **exporting large or complex documents**, it may be necessary to authorize DocExport to ensure the process completes successfully without running into a time-out.

This ensures that the document generation process has the extended permissions and resources required for handling more demanding export tasks.

## How to authorize DocExport

* Click on the 'DocExport v2' Board view on any board.
* Click on 'More' and on 'Subscription'
* Click on 'Authorize App'

That's it! From now on, DocExport will no longer experience time-outs during the document generation process. If you encounter any further issues, please contact our support team.
