(JavaScript) SugarCRM Authenticate

Demonstrates how to authenticate to the SugarCRM REST v10 API. This is how an OAuth2 access token is obtained.

Note

This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat v11.4.0 or greater.

}

rest.AddHeader("Cache-Control","no-cache");

// The JSON created by this code is shown below.
