# Get access token

To obtain the Access Token, make a request to the authentication endpoint with your ZapSign user credentials. This endpoint will return both the Access Token and the Refresh Token.

<mark style="color:green;">`POST`</mark> `https://api.zapsign.com.br/api/v1/auth/token/{{`organization\_ID`}}/`

{% hint style="info" %}
You can obtain your organization ID by navigating to **Settings > Integrations > API Token > Organization ID**.

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="401: Unauthorized Invalid credentials" %}

{
    "detail": "No active account found with the given credentials"
}
```

{% endcode %}
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="400: Bad Request Login attempts exceeded." %}

```javascript
{
    "message": "Rate limit exceeded"
}
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

After obtaining your Token, you can authenticate to the ZapSign endpoints by including your token in the "Authorization" header of your request, using the prefix "Bearer". Example:

```
  'headers': {
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    'Authorization': 'Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJ0b2tlbl90eXBlIjoiYWNjZXNzIiwiZXhwIjoxNzA5ODIwMTQxLCJqdGkiOiIxMGM4YmVhOTkxNDM0ZGU5OWQxNmViMGE2ZTA3MTU1YyIsInVzZXJfaWQiOjEsInR5cGUiOiJwdWJsaWMifQ.GhMKXDyiidHrWCSmU3I9e6-zDm61mBmDqEavir4IW0c'
  },
```

After one hour, you will need to authenticate again. See how to do this in the chapter "[Refresh Your Access Token".](/english/authentication/jwt-authentication/refresh-your-access-token.md)
