Overview

This section includes information on how to obtain a valid auth_token.

Fuse field names are case-sensitive. If a field does not update or you are getting a bad response, check that the field name being sent within the request matches the field name on Fuse.

Auth Token

Auth Tokens can be obtained in the Admin panel of a Fuse instance or from an API client, such as Postman or cURL.

Generating an auth token in Postman

Follow these steps:

1. Select your workspace.

2. Create a request

3. Set the HTTP method to POST.

4. Enter the Fuse instance URL:
   https://<instance_name>.fuseuniversal.com/api/v4.4/token

5. Select Body tab.

6. Select form-data sub-tab.

7. Set a couple of key-value pairs:

   • First KEY: login_name; VALUE: <your_login_name>

   • Second KEY: password; VALUE: <your_password>

8. Press the Enter key or click on the Send button.

9. Expected Status Code: 201 Created

10. Make a note of the auth_token value from the response body to use for requests in later Manage Users Endpoint Examples.
