Is there support for PAT tokens in Discourse. There is a particular use-case we are working on that we might need PAT tokens. If yes, where can I find them?

You can create an api key assigned to a specific user and it will use the same user permissions that they have access to when logged in.

There are also (if enabled), user-provisioned API keys.
Discourse contains a system for generating API keys per user if a very specific protocol is followed. This feature facilitates “application” access to Discourse instances without needing to involve moderators.

Tried out this request but it didn’t work, am I doing something wrong here?
I’m testing out things such that a webhook gets triggered when I request a user api key
I’m getting a 404 error

I don’t believe discourse has a webhook that will trigger when a “user api key” is requested.
Are you trying to use one of these events to trigger the webhook?
