How do you issue an access token? (API v2)
My dev is struggling to see how you generate an access token by sending a request to the API?
He has read this doc but hasn't found it very helpful. He understands you can create it through the UI (edit profile) but can't find it. And he understands you can do it by accessing the Vanilla PHP modules but feels that wouldn't be particularly sensible.
Can someone explain how it's normally done?

I think you can't generate an access token by request. You have to establish a server to server communication as stated in the docs. https://docs.vanillaforums.com/help/apiv2/authentication/
