-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"email": "user@example.com", "password": "yourpassword"}'
\`\`\`
Response:
\`\`\`json
{
"accessToken": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...",
"refreshToken": "..."
}
\`\`\`
#### Using the Token
\`\`\`bash
curl -X GET https://api.example.com/v1/users \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN"
