Generate a token for use by a service
If you need to generate a token that a Puppet Enterprise (PE) service can use, and the token doesn't need to
be saved, use the --print option with the puppet-access command.
To generate a token for a service, run:
sudo puppet-access login [username] --print
This command generates a token, and then displays the token content as stdout (standard output) rather than saving it to disk.
When generating a token
for a service, consider specifying a longer token lifetime so that you
don't have to regenerate the token too frequently.
