Variable	Required	Description
`RIPPLING_API_TOKEN`	Yes	Rippling API token (Bearer). Issued for custom API integrations by your Rippling admin, or as an app access token for approved Rippling apps Docs.

Confirm API access: Rippling API access is not open by default. Customers can obtain an API token for custom integrations through their Rippling account (API access may require a plan add-on); software vendors register an app at https://developer.rippling.com and receive tokens once approved.
Get your API token: As a Rippling admin, create or retrieve your company API token from the Rippling admin console (Settings → Company API / custom integration settings), or use the access token issued for your approved app integration.
Store the token: Add RIPPLING_API_TOKEN=<your token> to your .env file. Requests are sent to https://api.rippling.com/platform/api with an Authorization: Bearer header.
Verify access: Run the List Employees tool. The token’s scopes (granted at creation/approval) determine which resources are readable; a 403 means the token lacks the scope for that endpoint.

This connector targets the token-authenticated platform API (api.rippling.com/platform/api); Rippling’s newer REST API for App Shop partners uses OAuth app installs and is not covered here
List endpoints paginate with limit/offset (recommended max limit 100)
Returned data is limited by the scopes granted to your token or app
