The first thing you will need is a client Id and a client password, which you can request from the IIM team.

            client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));

            // Add required information to retrieve token (you will need to use your credentials)

                new KeyValuePair<string, string>("scope", "sourceapi"),

            response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();

            // For our purposes we'll get the return as string (that is valid JSON) and then deserialize into an object
            var jsonResponseString = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
            var jsonObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<JwtResponseBlock>(jsonResponseString);

            client.Dispose();

            client = new HttpClient();
            client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", jsonObject.access_token);
