Generate an Account Management Authentication Token

https://useast.api.elasticpath.com/v2/account-members/tokens

Commerce provides authentication tokens for anyone using the Account Management APIs, including accounts and account members.

For each element in the list returned by the account member authentication API, a token value is returned. In order for a shopper to authenticate as the account, this value should be set as the EP-Account-Management-Authentication-Token header when calling Commerce. This header grants access to additional resources associated with the account, such as carts, orders, catalogs with associated rules, and addresses.

The set of permissions available to a shopper using an Account Management Authentication token is documented in Permissions

Commerce provides authentication tokens for an account and an account member using:

• OpenID Connect
• Username and password
• Self signup
• One-time password token
• Switch account token
