Authentication

Generate JWT token

Changed on

Exchange application credentials for a scoped JWT token that allows the application to act on behalf of a specific user.

The application must be authorized for the user's email domain. The returned token expires after a configured duration and must be refreshed by calling this endpoint again.

Request parameters may be sent either as "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" (as specified by RFC 6749 for OAuth 2.0 token endpoints) or as "application/json".
