In this tutorial we're going to authenticate with BigID using a user token to retrieve a list of data sources.

First we'll need to create a user token for us to use through the BigID UI.

If you don't have access to a BigID environment to get a token, you can get one from the sandbox by running the automation after the steps.

To do this we need to navigate to the Access Management screen under Administration -> Access Management. On the Access Management screen, select the user you want to create a token for from the System Users List. Then press the Generate button highlighted on the screenshot below.
