How do I send a JWT as an auth paramter as part of a Web service API call in a business process
I have an integration I'm setting up against a companys API sandbox environment. They have an authentication endpoint where I send my basic auth credentials as a JSON body parameter. In the response I receive a JSON web token and this request also works in Creatio via Test request.
However, subsequently when making requests with the web service against the API to extract company information for example, how do I attach the JWT Bearer as part of the Web service call?
I understand that first I would need to save the retrieved token from the auth call in a process parameter likely, but in the GET request for companies in the Web service API call, I dont see room to attach the access token anywhere as a header or anything.
Or am I suppose to set it up using the Authentication settings in the Web service, if so could anyone explain how to set it up as a ClientID and Secret are not revelant here:

What I have done is have 1 method for login, logout and hitting my endpoint. In my BP I call the login. Get the token. In my endpoint method I have the token as a header parmater and pass it in the process. Then call the logout method.

keith schmitt,
Thank you Keith, this is the similar to the setup we worked out internally to use. With the difference that in order to handle refresh of the access token we use a separate process in the background which refreshes the token in a system setting which the endpoint processes can always refer to with in the header parameter.
