Description
The Generate ArcGIS Token activity generates an access token for secured ArcGIS Server services.
Usage
A workflow in a client application could use the Run Workflow activity to run a server workflow. The server workflow could use the Generate ArcGIS Token activity to generate an access token followed by a Set Workflow Output activity to return the token to the client application. Finally, the client application could use the Send Web Request activity and incorporate the token in its Query input in order to send a request to a secure ArcGIS REST endpoint. This can be used for running a geocode request, obtaining coded value domains, or adding/editing features, for example.
