Authentication

This collection uses the Token Authentication. You should specify your token in the api-token variable.

You can generate this token either with SAYMON UI or with the Create Authentication Token request in the imported collection itself.

To generate the token in Postman follow these steps:

  • Setup saymonHostname, username, and password variables.

  • Open the SAYMON REST API/Authentication/Authentication Token/Create Authentication Token and click the Send button to send the Create Authentication Token request.

  • Set the api-token collection variable to the authentication token, returned in the response. Don’t include the quotation marks.
