No such token "%s"!

Error message

No such token "%s"!

What it means

PhabricatorTokenGivenEditor::validateToken() loads the token by PHID with the acting user as viewer. If PhabricatorTokenQuery returns nothing (bad PHID, deleted token, or a token invisible to the actor), giving that token is refused before any write occurs.

Solutions

1. Re-fetch the current token list with PhabricatorTokenQuery and submit a PHID from those results
2. Drop cached token PHIDs and resolve them fresh per session
3. If the actor cannot see the token, act as a viewer with appropriate visibility

Example fix

// before: hardcoded, possibly stale token PHID
$editor->giveTokenTo($object_phid, 'PHID-TOKN-stale');

// after: resolve a live token first
$tokens = id(new PhabricatorTokenQuery())
  ->setViewer($actor)
  ->execute();
$token = head($tokens);
$editor->giveTokenTo($object_phid, $token->getPHID());

$token = id(new PhabricatorTokenQuery())
  ->setViewer($actor)
  ->withPHIDs(array($token_phid))
  ->executeOne();
if (!$token) {
  // re-resolve from the current token list instead of proceeding
}

Catch Exception from the editor around token-giving and re-resolve the token list once before retrying; if the retry fails too, surface the failure instead of looping.

When it happens

Trigger: Calling the token editor (give/award flow) with a token PHID that fails to load: a stale PHID from an old UI, a hand-built request, or a token the actor cannot see.

Common situations: Clients caching token PHIDs past their lifetime; extensions or bots posting token reactions with hardcoded PHIDs; policy changes hiding the token from the actor.
