i do the following with postman:
POST https://myserver/api/v8.1/authentication
Headers: "Accept" "application/json"
"Content-Type" "application/json"
Then in postman i set "No Auth" because otherwise user and password are not sent as body of the post as per documentation
Body of the request is the user and password the same way they are sent in the restapi documentation with "try it"
I always get "invalid token" in the reply but as per the documentation this is the method to be used the first time to obtain the token.
Postman is also creating the curl code corresponding to the call :
curl -X POST \
https://10.206.203.2/api/v8.1/authentication \
-H 'Accept: application/json' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-H 'Postman-Token: b427d487-89c5-4c5e-a3cc-d940b603a8a8' \
-H 'cache-control: no-cache' \
-d '{"password": "xxxx","username": "xxxx"}'
What am i doing wrong?
Is there any ready example in python to obtain the authentication token and in general to perform some requests?
Thanks a lot fo rthe kind reply

Hello , i solved the problem about authentication in postman.
But it would be nice to collect some restapi usage examples in java/python.....
