# auth.generate_token

Generate a token to be used for authentication.

ttl stands for Time To Live, in seconds. The token will be invalidated if the connection has been inactive for a time greater than this.

attrs is a general purpose object/dictionary to hold information about the token.

match_origin will only allow using this token from the same IP address or with the same user UID.

NOTE: this endpoint is not supported when server security requires replay-resistant authentication as part of GPOS STIG requirements.
