Hi,

Under admin console --> Web API authentication,  you will have an option API key and OAuth 2.0 Clients. This for for generating the credentials. which external system would invoke Appian API.

Are you referring to the token request endpoint: https://<appian_site_url>/suite/authorization/oauth/token?

It's actually mentioned in the Admin Console Oauth 2 but easy to miss.

Yes,I'm referring to the token request endpoint: https://<appian_site_url>/suite/authorization/oauth/token?

Do you mean i don't need to reference to the token request endpoint?

If you're calling an Appian API from within Appian, just add it to your connected system.
