• Users first have to make a POST request to this endpoint:
• Test environment: http://stage-asiservice.asicentral.com/credit/v1/login
• Production: http://asiservice.asicentral.com/credit/v1/login
• You need to provide your user log-in credentials – ASI #, Username and Password - as a JSON object within the request body.
• JSON format looks like this:
• {"asi":"12345","username":"sso12345","password":"password1"}
• If the login is successful, they will receive an authentication token.
• This token will be within the body of the response that is provided. For example: {“token”:”ASDKHADHKSDJKHASKDHSAJDHKADHKHASDLJS”}
• Token shall be 64 characters long.

You have to include this token value in all further requests to the API for that session. You will need to re-login after 2 hours. You need to put this value in the HTTP request header. AuthToken:ASDKHADHKSDJKHASKDHSAJDHKADHKHASDLJS
