Once a user is onboarded to the VMware Cloud Services, an account is created for that user. The user can log in to the account and generate a refresh token that can be configured as part of the Skyline adapter instance.

To generate an CSP Refresh Token:

Procedure

  1. On the Cloud Services Console toolbar, click your user name and select My Account > API Tokens.
  2. Click the Generate a New API Token link.
  3. Enter a token name.
  4. Enter the Token TTL, which specifies how long the API Token will be valid.
  5. Define a scope for the token and select All Roles.
  6. (Optional) Select the Open ID check box to retrieve an Open ID compliant token with extended user details.
  7. Click Generate.
  8. Copy, or save the generated token. You need this token to complete the configuration for the Management Pack for VMware Skyline.
