# Solana Revoke Token Authority Tutorial

After Solana token is created, there will be 3 authorities: Revoke Update Authority, Revoke Freeze Authority and Revoke Mint Authority.

* **Revoke Update Authority**: Revoking update authority means you will not be able to modify the token metadata. It indeed makes investors feel more secure.
* **Revoke Freeze Authority:**  Revoking freeze authority removes control over specific account actions. GTokenTool supports markets for tokens with this authority retained.
* **Revoke Mint Authority:** Revoking minting authority is essential for investor security and token success, preventing further token supply.

{% hint style="success" %}
If the token is issued on GTokenTool and the logo has been uploaded, it will have these three authorities. If the token is issued on other platforms, it may have 2 authorities or 1 authority. Of course, no matter where you create and issue the token, you can revoke the authorities through GTokenTool.

### 3. Determine whether the token has the corresponding authority

If the authority of the token is a button, it means that you have the authority corresponding to the token and you can revoke the authority normally.

If the token authorities show that there is no permission to freeze/mint/update this token, it means that your current wallet address does not have the corresponding authority for this token. Then you cannot revoke the authority and can only operate on the authorities you have.

If the text in the picture below appears among the three authorities, it means that you do not have any authorities for this token.

### 4.  Select the authority you want to revoke&#x20;

Click the corresponding button, and then click "`Confirm`". The wallet page will pop up and you will complete the operation of revoking authorities after clicking.
