Question

How do I get a JWT token to authorize scriptRunner for FlexNet Code Insight 6.8?

Answer

Launch the web browser as a user who has Scripting Administrator privileges.
After logging into the application, click on My Settings on the top right corner of the screen. Scroll to the bottom where you can add a Token.
Proceed to add a token with a name to identify it, the desired expiration date, and copy the token as you will need it to run ScriptRunner.
Navigate to the scriptRunner/bin directory to launch scriptRunner. You will need to The -c flag connects the core server, which needs to use the http(s) port used by the application, the same core server url specified in core.properties. Use the -u flag with the authorized user after you have copied the jwt Token from the Web UI.
```
./scriptRunner.sh -u username_of_scripting_administrator -c http(s)://core.server.url:8888/palamida/
```
This will prompt you to enter the jwt Token, paste it in for the one time authorization. If the authorization is successful, the groovy commandline console will be launched. Exit the console with the command exit.
