The Flowingly Public API has an endpoint to get an access token.
Please note that the user account must be a Flowingly Business Administrator.
The content type for this endpoint needs to be set to application/x-www-form-urlencoded
cURL example to get an authorization token:
curl --location --request POST 'https://publicapi.flowingly.net/public/authorise?username=tester@test.net&password=tester1234' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded' \
C# example to get an authorization token using RestSharp:
var client = new RestClient("https://publicapi.flowingly.net/public/authorise?username=tester@test.net&password=tester1234");
var request = new RestRequest(Method.POST);
request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
The response from the authorise endpoint looks like this:
{
"accessToken": "theAccessTokenValue",
"refreshToken": null,
"idToken": "",
"tokenType": "Bearer",
"expiresIn": 0
}
The next step is to copy the accessToken value and add it into the HTTP header.

curl --location --request POST 'https://publicapi.flowingly.net/public/startFlow' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer theAccessTokenValue' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
