Generate Token for ArcGIS Server 10.2

[StephanieSnider]

Since ESRI doesn't have a 10.2 forum yet, I'm posting this to the 10.1 forum.

I just upgraded to ArcGIS Server 10.2.  I noticed that the "Get Token" link is no longer availabe in the Rest Services Directory.  I can generate a token from the Admin Directory.  Is this how we are supposed to do it now?  I haven't found any documentation on creating tokens in 10.2. 

From the Web Adaptor, I can still get to https://servername/arcgis/tokens/ even though it is not linked anywhere.  If we had the admin access enabled (which we will not for production), the Admin directory token page is https://servername/arcgis/admin/generateToken.  Note I'm using https because I have secure services enabled.

Is it me or is token generatation more hidden in 10.2 than 10.1?  What's up with that?  Why remove it from the REST Services Directory?

It looks like the disappearance of the Get Token link is a bug (NIM093798); it shouldn't be hidden.  Thank you for bringing this to our attention. 🙂

Hi, in this case how do i create a token based service in ArcGIS Server 10.2?
If there is a process can you please provide the documentation on it.

I see the status of the bug as "resolved" but I still have the same problem on 10.2.1. We just upgraded the server and this problem started.
All http get requests sent to token service are redirected to "http://<server ip>:6080/arcgis"

e.g.
This url

http://<server ip>:6080/arcgis/tokens?request=getToken&username=<username>&password=<password>&expiration=5

gets redirected to

http://<server ip>:6080/arcgis
