      description: This endpoint generates and obtains a pair of JSON Web Tokens (JWTs). The response provides an access token and a refresh token. The access token is a digitally encoded signature that can be used to authenticate and authorize access requests on a requested API path. It is designed to have a minimal lifetime, to ensure minimum time for the requesting user's identity to be exploited. The refresh token must have a longer lifetime than the access token. It can be used to request new tokens. The new access token can then be used to authenticate further requests.
