Documentation for API authentication using tokens

[richard7ac]

I have tried numerous options to try and figure this out but none work for me.

Authentication using username and password is ok but find do not mention cookies being used which works have been helpful!!

Tried logging in with

• blank user and token as password
• No user just token as password
• Token with key name instead
• Bearer authentication

Tried using Bearer authentication for Auth/me call and Zone list and also no good!!

Can you shed some light on the correct way to use token authentication please and hopefully add to the docs or clarify where it is.

API authentication works with tokens set as Bearer authorization header which is how the terraform provider works. Did you create a token under Auth -> Tokens?
