1. To complete this quickstart, generate a {% data variables.product.pat_v1 %} that ARC can use to authenticate to {% data variables.product.company_short %}. This quickstart uses a {% data variables.product.pat_generic %} to keep the initial setup short. If you are registering runners at the repository or organization level, we recommend authenticating with a {% data variables.product.prodname_github_app %} instead. Enterprise-level runners require {% data variables.product.pat_v1 %} authentication.
