Generate a token to query features from a federated arcgis server

As the name suggests, I have a ArcGIS Server federated to ArcGIS Portal. Portal auth takes over here so I can generate a token with ArcGIS Portal `/sharing/rest/generateToken`. I can then take this token and generate a server URL token - or so the docs would lead me to believe.

https://developers.arcgis.com/rest/users-groups-and-items/generate-token.htm

but when I get the "server token" the response from the `/query` endpoint is always invalid token. I'm using `client=requestip` and `serverUrl=https://...../server/` and `token=<the portal token i got in step 1>`

Has anyone gotten this working?

More details:

step 1 - get a portal token:

Step 2 - pass portal token to get a serverToken:

Step 3: pass server token to the query endpoint

Update - I found the issue. Using client:requestip didn't work. No reason as to why - but after changing the client to referer and setting `referer=some-referer` I was able to use the token.
