This document describes how client can obtain access token for authenticating a user to use Amino APIs.
...
- A User can be authenticated by using our access token, client should first get the access token using our login end point. See Login and authentication#/User%20Authentication/loginUser
- The client uses this API provided above to authenticate with the service and retrieve session parameters and access tokens used for authenticating with APIs. A logged in client may call this API to retrieve tokens without supplying the authorization parameters.
- All new AminoTV APIs only support token auth. Some users are logged in by cookie, for such cases access tokens can be obtained by cookie <-> token exchange process, See https://confluence.aminocom.com/display/MAPI/Cookie-token+exchange for the exchange process.
