Token of a Grafana Cloud access policy, used by agents and API clients to send and query telemetry. Grafana documents that these tokens start with glc_; the regexp follows the gitleaks rule for the rest (32 to 400 Base64 characters). Service account tokens of a Grafana instance (glsa_) are grafana_service_account_token.
