In order to use AgavePy a user or program needs to be authenticated with
the API.
The Agave services use the Oauth protocol to manage user authentication.
The authentication process involves specifying the tenant one wishes to interact with, the creation of an Oauth client that will create and refresh access tokens for the rest of the Agave services, and the request for the creation of an access token and refresh token pair or the use of a refresh token to obtain a new token pair after the tokens have expired. We will refer to the specfication fo a tenant, client configurations, and tokens as a session.
In this section we descrie how AgavePy enables us to go through the process
of initiating and managing a session.
