The Token operation is used to login a user. The access token is returned as a response, which is used to identify the session in the subsequent Web API operations.

Url: POST /token
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Body:
username=myUserName&password=myPassword&grant_type=password

Note that the path doesn't contain api unlike all other operations in the Web API. Example url:

https://customer.onqpr.com/qprpa/token

Request body contains the following parameters as url encoded:

  • username: Login name of the user
  • password: User password
  • grant_type: password (always use that value)

The response is an object with following fields:

  • access_token: contains the access token (session id).
  • globalPermissions: Global permissions of the user as comma separated list.
  • serverVersion: Version of the QPR ProcessAnalyzer server.
  • token_type: always bearer
  • userSettings: All user-specific settings in stringified JSON format. Contains the following settings:
    • uiLanguage: UI language of the user.
    • dateFormat: The date time format used to present dates.
    • firstDayOfWeek: The first day of the week shown in e.g. calendars. 0 is Sunday and 1 is Monday.
    • use12HourClock: Whether the 12-hour clock is used when presenting time information.
