After the password is generated, you can generate the token. To generate the token, open your API client and follow these steps:

Note:

  • You may use the desktop version of the Postman client to perform these steps. Postman is an open-source, collaborative platform for API development. For more information, see Postman Docs.
  • You can also use any other API client, such as cURL. For more information, see REST APIs for Oracle Database.
  1. Open the Postman client and click Create a request.
  2. Select the request type as GET and enter the request URL in the following format:
    ##APP_URL##/rest-api/auth/v1/token
