        2. On a terminal window execute the curl command for the environment you selected.

titleExample

curl -X POST --header "Content-Type: application/xml" -d "<token><username>sample_username</username><password>sample-password</password><client_id>client_name_of_your_choosing</client_id><user_ip_address>your_origin_ip_address</user_ip_address> <provider>Provider Id</provider>address> </token>" https://apicmr.echoearthdata.nasa.gov/echolegacy-services/rest/tokens


Note:

  • Depending on the environment you selected, the Base API URL may be different from the example.  If so, replace the purple text with the correct Base API URL.
  • If you are embedding the token REST messages into a programming language, create an HTTP message and place the same components from the curl example into either the message header or body.
  • The <provider> element in blue in the example above is only used if you are planning on working on behalf of a data provider (ingesting). It is not necessary for Client developers  who are searching.
  • If you have special characters in your password, you will probably need to escape them using a backslash.

<token>

<username>sample_username</username>
  <password>sample-password</password>
  <client_id>client_name_of_your_choosing</client_id>
  <user_ip_address>your_origin_ip_address</user_ip_address>
  <provider>Provider Id</provider></token>


Note: mytokengenerator.xml can be used as a file name, which simplifies the command.  See example underneath step 2 for original command and the example below for simplified command.

Note: if using a programming language, just place the curl example parts into the correct http message header or body locations.
