Arcgis Signin

Sign in to an ArcGIS portal and return a short-lived token.

Asks the portal's own token service for a token valid for 60 minutes and returns it. Put that token in the token field on probe, preview, commit and refresh; an import that runs longer than the token lives fails with a credential error and has to start over.

An account that signs in through an identity provider, or that has multifactor authentication turned on, cannot use this. Paste a token or an API key instead. A portal on a private network is unreachable either way.
