Acquiring Access Token

Access_token must be present in the request headers to be allowed to reach API endpoints Authentication happens via a JWT sent out in the request headers Customer does not sign/generate the JWT Client creates this JWT using PyJWT package.

if credentials file set to use for Key/Value, the default value is:
~/.filelib/credentials
this value can be changed at Customer's discretion:

from filelib import Client
client = Client(credentials_source='credentials_file', credentials_path='path_to_credentials_file')

Credentials file must be in the following format:
