Remove the Token from the source code or committed configuration file.
Follow your policy for handling leaked secrets, which typically require revoking the secret in the target system(s). See Personal Token Revoke.
If under a git repository, you may remove unwanted files from the repository history using tools like git filter-repo or BFG Repo-Cleaner. You may follow the procedure listed here for GitHub.

You should consider any sensitive data in commits with secrets as compromised.

Remember that secrets may be removed from history in your projects, but not in other users' cloned or forked repositories.
