I'm having trouble retriving a token to access a secure service online. I'm using a developer account. When I run it against a local install of ArcGIS Server it works fine I'm not 100% sure what the tokenurl would be and if the userid /password would just be the login I have for my developer site.
Thanks
Jim
I'm using code similar to the following to retrive the token:
public Dictionary<string, string> GetToken(string username, string password, string tokenUrl)
Dictionary<string, string> dictionary = new Dictionary<string, string>();
MapTalk mt = new MapTalk();
var myToken = "";
if (tokenUrl != "")
//#######################
var data = new NameValueCollection();
"username"] = username;
"password"] = password;
"expires"] = "1";
"f"] = "json";
JavaScriptSerializer jserialize = new JavaScriptSerializer();
TokenInfo x = jserialize.Deserialize<TokenInfo>(_getResponse(data, tokenUrl));
var epoch = new DateTime(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, DateTimeKind.Utc);
var expire = epoch.AddMilliseconds(x.expires).ToLocalTime();
"token", myToken);
"expire",expire.ToString());
return dictionary;
else
"token","");
return dictionary;
public class TokenInfo
public string token { get; set; }
public long expires { get; set; }
public bool ssl { get; set; }
private string _getResponse(NameValueCollection data, string url)
string responseData;
var webClient = new WebClient();
var response = webClient.UploadValues(url, data);
Encoding.UTF8.GetString(response);
return responseData;
