Document need to recreate token due to Ubuntu One migration (invalid macaroon)
Metadata
Current evaluation
Docs request: warn that Candid-issued macaroons become invalid after the Ubuntu One auth migration (#2760), so tokens must be recreated; triaged, tracked as CHARMCRAFT-719, awaiting a docs change.
Suggested action: keep open
Reason: The request is valid and already triaged: it carries the `Status: Triaged` and `Type: Documentation` labels and was converted to internal ticket CHARMCRAFT-719. The reporter pinpoints the cause (PR #2760, 'feat!: migrate from candid to Ubuntu One auth', merged in commit 9279665a, which invalidates Candid-issued tokens with 'BadRequest Invalid macaroon') and names concrete targets (release notes / the login command docs), so the change is small and well-scoped. It stays open because the only comment is an autogenerated Jira-sync message and no docs commit exists yet that resolves it; confidence is held down because repository inspection was unavailable to confirm whether the release notes already mention the migration, and the linked doc page lives on canonical.com rather than this repo.
