Controls
Use the Controls tab when you need to change authorities or update advanced token settings.
Typical Use Case
You are moving mint authority to a treasury wallet, revoking freeze authority after launch, or adjusting a Token-2022 extension.
What You Can Do
- Transfer or revoke token authorities
- Update delegate-style settings where supported
- Open extension configuration dialogs for advanced token behavior
Before You Start
- Confirm which wallet should hold authority after the change
- Review extension changes carefully before you sign, because control mistakes are hard to unwind later

What To Review Before Changing Controls
| Area | Why it matters |
|---|---|
New Authority Address | Defines who will control the token after the transfer |
New Delegate Address | Defines delegated control where supported |
| Extension parameters | Changes token behavior for future transfers or account state |
Example
If you are done minting, one common hardening step is to move or revoke mint authority so no additional supply can be created by mistake.
