Summary

Requirements

All API calls require a dedicated JSON Web Token (JWT). These are created when a user with a dedicated mobile resource logs in to the application. If you are using the API for programmatic queries, it is best to create a dedicated user for the JWT as this gets reset each time the user logs in.
