gCube Token Portlet

The gCube Authorization Framework is based on the concept of Token. A token is basically a random string which encapsulates some information. Two of them are: who's the owner (i.e., the username) of the token and for which context (VO/VRE) that token is valid. To generate qualified tokens or retrieve your token for a context you can use the Token Generator Portlet, deployed in almost Infrastructure's contexts.

Retrieve the security token

The token for each context is automatically created for you. So, the only thing you can do is to retrieve it by using the portlet
