Tenant tokens API - POST start rotation

Initiates the rotation of the tenant token. The request creates a new tenant token that you must add to the configuration of your OneAgents and ActiveGates. For a full description of the rotation process, see Rotate tenant token.

To avoid data loss, both old and new tokens are valid during the rotation process. During rotation, do not deploy any new OneAgents until all your ActiveGates are configured with the new tenant token.

The request produces an application/json payload.
