 To enable your CI/CD system to build and push images using Docker Build Cloud, provide both an access token and a username. The type of token and the username you use depend on your account type and permissions.
 
-- If you are an organization administrator or have permission to create [organization access tokens (OAT)](../security/for-admins/access-tokens.md), use an OAT and set `DOCKER_USER` to your Docker Hub organization name.
-- If you do not have permission to create OATs or are using a personal account, use a [personal access token (PAT)](/security/for-developers/access-tokens/) and set `DOCKER_USER` to your Docker Hub username.
+- If you are an organization administrator or have permission to create [organization access tokens (OAT)](../security/for-admins/access-tokens.md), use an OAT and set `DOCKER_ACCOUNT` to your Docker Hub organization name.
+- If you do not have permission to create OATs or are using a personal account, use a [personal access token (PAT)](/security/for-developers/access-tokens/) and set `DOCKER_ACCOUNT` to your Docker Hub username.
 
 ### Creating access tokens
 
 #### For organization accounts
 
 If you are an organization administrator:
 
-1. Create an [organization access token (OAT)](../security/for-admins/access-tokens.md):
-   - The token must have these permissions:
-     - **cloud-connect** scope
-     - **Read public repositories** permission
-     - **Repository access** with **Image push** permission for the target repository:
-       - Expand the **Repository** drop-down.
-       - Select **Add repository** and choose your target repository.
-       - Set the **Image push** permission for the repository.
+- Create an [organization access token (OAT)](../security/for-admins/access-tokens.md). The token must have these permissions:
+    1. **cloud-connect** scope
+    2. **Read public repositories** permission
+    3. **Repository access** with **Image push** permission for the target repository:
+        - Expand the **Repository** drop-down.
+        - Select **Add repository** and choose your target repository.
+        - Set the **Image push** permission for the repository.
 
 If you are not an organization administrator:
 
 - Ask your organization administrator for an access token with the permissions listed above, or use a personal access token.
 
 #### For personal accounts
 
-1. Create a [personal access token (PAT)](/security/for-developers/access-tokens/):
-   - Create a new token with **Read & write** access.
-     - Note: Building with Docker Build Cloud only requires read access, but you need write access to push images to a Docker Hub repository.
+- Create a [personal access token (PAT)](/security/for-developers/access-tokens/) with the following permissions:
+   1. **Read & write** access.
+        - Note: Building with Docker Build Cloud only requires read access, but you need write access to push images to a Docker Hub repository.
 
 
 ## CI platform examples
 
 > [!NOTE]
 >
-> In your CI/CD configuration, set the following variables:
-> - `DOCKER_PAT` — your access token (PAT or OAT)
-> - `DOCKER_USER` — your Docker Hub username (for PAT) or organization name (for OAT)
+> In your CI/CD configuration, set the following variables/secrets:
+> - `DOCKER_ACCESS_TOKEN` — your access token (PAT or OAT). Use a secret to store the token.
+> - `DOCKER_ACCOUNT` — your Docker Hub organization name (for OAT) or username (for PAT)
+> - `CLOUD_BUILDER_NAME` — the name of the cloud builder you created in the [Docker Build Cloud Dashboard](https://app.docker.com/build/)
 >
 > This ensures your builds authenticate correctly with Docker Build Cloud.
