# Configuring npm to work with a SourceCraft registry

1. [Create](https://sourcecraft.dev/portal/docs/en/sourcecraft/security/pat.md#create) a personal access token (PAT).
1. Open the `.npmrc` file in the project root.
1. Add the following lines to the previously created `.npmrc` file:

    ```text
    registry=https://pkg.sourcecraft.tech/npm/<organization_slug>/<registry_ID>/
    //pkg.sourcecraft.tech/npm/<organization_slug>/<registry_ID>/:_authToken=${NPM_AUTH_TOKEN}
    always-auth=true
    ```

    <!-- source: en/_includes/sourcecraft/get-slug-registry-id-notice.md -->
    {% note tip %}

    You can find the organization slug and registry ID on the registry page in the SourceCraft UI.

    {% endnote %}
    <!-- endsource: en/_includes/sourcecraft/get-slug-registry-id-notice.md -->

1. Create the `NPM_AUTH_TOKEN` environment variable containing the previously obtained personal access token:

    ```bash
    export NPM_AUTH_TOKEN=<personal_access_token>
    ```
