HCP System Management Help


Getting a Keystone Authentication Token

To get a Keystone Authentication Token, enter the following command in your Keystone client:

curl -X POST http://keystone.example.com:5000/v2.0/tokens \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Accept: application/json" \
-d '{"auth": {"tenantName": "tenant-name", "passwordCredentials": {"username": "tenant-username", "password": "password"}}}'

In this particular example the credentials are requested in json format. The Keystone response looks like this:

{

"serviceCatalog": [

}

],

"username": " tenant-user"

}

 }

 }

 

The json response contains named elements and named lists. The keystone token, that is passed to HCP in the X-Auth-Token header, can be found in the id element inside the token element inside the access element.

The authentication response from keystone also contains a ServiceCatalog list which lists the endpoints for all services integrated with Keystone.
