Make a POST request with a username and password to generate a JSON Web Token (JWT) to use for authentication in Control Room APIs.

1. Enter the following parameters in the request body.
   Request body:

   {
   "username": "jdoe",
   "password": "mypassword@123"
   }
   

   Depending on how your Control Room is configured, a domain could be require with the username.

   {
   "username": "your-domain\\jdoe",
   "password": "mypassword@123"
   }
   

2. Send the request.
   • In a REST Client, click SEND.
   • In the Swagger interface, click Execute.
   Response body:

   Note: The JWT is a 703 character string.
