Create Token

This is used to authenticate further calls to the API.

The AvaCloud API uses a client_id and client_secret to authenticate requests. Users will be issued these upon successful enrollment with AvaCloud.

Tokens are valid for 24 hours, with caching enabled to improve efficiency. If a cached token is close to expiring (within 10 minutes), a new token will be generated.

API keys must be kept secret. They should not be in your client-side code or checked into your application's code.
