Mint a Local Command Token

POST/devices/{deviceId}/local-tokens
Mint a short-lived, capability-scoped token a browser POS presents to the device’s local control plane.

Path parameters

deviceIdstringRequired

Headers

Idempotency-KeystringOptional
Makes the write safe to retry. The first request with a key does the work and its response is stored for 24 hours; a repeat with the same key and the same request (method, path, query, X-Ticketlayer-Channel, TL-Version and body) gets that stored status and body back, marked `Idempotent-Replay: true`, without running again. The key is scoped to your organisation and your credential. The same key with a different request is 422 IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REUSED; a repeat while the first is still running waits for it, then answers 409 IDEMPOTENT_REQUEST_IN_PROGRESS if it has not finished. Only a 2xx is stored: after an error the key is free again. Omit the header and the request behaves as it always has.

Body
