Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

When users try to create an API Token with an expiration date in the past, the system should throw an error and not create the token.

Use case

Creating API Tokens with expiration dates in the past serves few to any benefits. Setting tokens with future values makes sense and has benefits.

Database changes
