Create service token

Contributors netapp-ranuk dmp-netapp

You can create a service access token that can be used by BlueXP internal services and external clients.

Before you begin

You need to obtain the following:

  • client_id
    The application ID that the BlueXP SaaS UI has assigned to your application.

  • client_secret
    The secret generated by the UI when you registered the application.

See Register a service for more information about obtaining these credentials.

1. Generate the service token

This API call uses the Auth0 authentication service and not a NetApp BlueXP service endpoint. You need to review the URL in the curl example and adjust for your environment as needed.
